Answer:

Three main classifications of rocks are

  • sedimentary rock
  • metamorphic rock
  • igneous rock

Explanation:

Three main classifications of rocks are:

  • Sedimentary rocks are formed from the shells, sand particles and pebbles.

Example of Sedimentary rock limestone.

  • Igneous rocks are formed by the crystallization and solidification of magma.

Example of Igneous rock basalt.

  • Metamorphic rocks are formed when the igneous rock or sedimentary rock they are exposed to high temperature and pressure below the Earth's surface.

Example of Metamorphic rock is marble.

When scientists create a representation of a complex process, they are
Burka [1]

Answer:

d making models.

Explanation:

When scientists create a representation of a complex process, they are inferring that they are making models.

A model is an abstraction of the real world or a complex process. Models are very useful in developing solutions to processes that are not easily simplified.

  • The models allow a part of a body to be simply studied.
  • Through this simple abstraction, extrapolations to other parts of the system can be deduced.
  • This can give very useful insights into the other parts of the system.
  • The heterogeneity of complex processes is a huge limitation to understanding them.
  • A homogenous part can be modelled and used to understand the system.

Explain briefly how wind are causd​
Sedbober [7]

The different atmospheric pressures cause the air to have zones with different temperatures, the cold air tends to descend and the hot air to rise because it has less density. This movement of the two airs in the atmosphere is what generates the wind.

Plz, Help :/ you can choose any question you want or all of it if you pleased.
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

29. Proteins support the body's structural framework, chemical reactions, and contractions (muscle movement).

30. Proteins have a primary structure (polypeptide chain of amino acids), secondary structure (made up of alpha helices and beta pleat sheets), tertiary structure (superimposed on secondary structure), and quaternary structure (2 or more polypeptide chains with its own tertiary structure).

31. Protein molecules can denature if conditions aren't right, such as the wrong temperature or pH level. When denatured, proteins typically lose their shape and their function for a short time because their active sites become deactivated (though if conditions are too extreme, they can permanently lose their function). This happens to globular proteins because they are not nearly as stable as fibrous proteins due to their functional 3D shape.

I just did the first 3 since I could easily access the proteins section in my textbook at the moment. :)
