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

Biology
1 answer:
Anna [14]3 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>

Basile [38]

Answer:

Hello, Your answer is B) They will reclassify the species in the phylum Phaeophyta.

Explanation:

The species is currently classified in the phylum Chrysophyta because of its physical characteristics. However, after the scientists analyze the species' DNA, they discover that the DNA is most similar to protists in the phylum Phaeophyta. Since the phylogenetic trees are mostly made on the basis of the similarity of the DNA to the DNAs of the species present in a phylum, the species will get reclassified into the Phaeophyta phylum. <em>Hope That Helps!</em>
