What role does hot ion-rich water play in the process of metamorphism?

Biology
1 answer:
Anna [14]2 years ago
8 0
<span>Water flows downhill, eroding the host rock to make it smooth. Water cleanses the iron­bearing minerals, which helps to delineate the crystal faces. Water boils the rocks that it comes in contact with, causing them to liquefy and slowly cool and harden into a new, stable state. Water interferes with mineral crystallization, thereby delaying the process of metamorphism. Water migrates into host rock carrying ions to stable minerals in order to facilitate growth of new metamorphic minerals. </span>

Which process does not occur in the Krebs cycle?
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

The correct answer is b glucose is broken down into two pyruvate molecules.

Explanation:

Krebs cycle is one of the most important step of aerobic respiraion.Krebs cycle occur within mitochondrial matrix.During krebs cycle the acetyl CoA generated from pyruvate reacts with oxalo acetate in a cyclic manner to regenerate 4 carbon compound oxaloacetate.

 During krebs cycle pyruvate is broken down or oxidized to form 2 carbon compound known as acetyl CoA and carbon dioxide as byproduct.

  But the breakdown of glucose into two pyruvate molecules occur during glycolysis.
