olasank [31]3 years ago

The rocks are in dry climate.

The relative permanence or “toughness” of the rock prone to weathering absolutely depends partially on sort of rock it is. This is because rock type is defined by the structure and relationship of the constituent metals, and complex metals vary in how they endure up to weathering.

Several types of rock, like granite, are very repellent to weathering. Moreover, Igneous rocks serve to heat slowly because it is difficult for water to penetrate into them.

Answer:

Option C, Rocks that are in a dry climate

Explanation:

Option A “rocks that are soft” can be weathered easily with the application of  temperature, pressure etc. Hence option A is incorrect

Option B” rocks with a porous surface rocks” have lot many fracture points and thus they break easily when acted upon by temperature, pressure or any chemical solution. Thus option B is incorrect

Option D “rocks with minerals that dissolve easily” can easily dissolve in water during heavy rains or when there is heavy water flow condition. Thus, option D is incorrect.  

Option C “rocks that are in a dry climate” have strong composition and thus they will provide maximum resistance to weathering.

Describe the process in meiosis that ensures that both maternal and paternal chromosomes are passed on to each spermatozoon.
snow_lady [41]

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division in which the ploidy of the organism reduces to half in the daughter cells.

Meiosis produces 4 daughter cells from 1 parent cell with a different combination of the genetic material but haploid chromosomes.

The meiosis process takes place in two stages in which during the first stage, the homologous chromosomes separate reducing the chromosome number to half that is from diploid chromosomes of parents to haploid in daughter.

Since the process of meiosis form haploid gametes in both male and female therefore after fertilization restores the diploid chromosomes of the parent cell and form a diploid structure.

What impact does the atmosphere have on the Earth’s cycles? Select four options. produces wind currents, transfers nitrogen from
kozerog [31]

Answer:

C. transfers water into Earth’s oceans.

E. moves oxygen and carbon dioxide through the biosphere.

Explanation: Atmosphere has great effect on the movement of water. Due to evaporation, water that is present in the ocean is evaporated in the form of vapours and forming clouds. These clouds move to the hilly areas and falls in the form of rain. This water is used by both plants and animals.

Atmosphere moves oxygen and carbon dioxide through the biosphere. Carbondioxode is exhaled from animal's body to the atmosphere. This carbondioxode is used by plants in the process of photosynthesis and make their own food and oxygen is exhaled. This oxygen is used by the animals.

Dodder is a parasitic plant, which has roots for support and absorption of nutrients from the host plant. Determine what kind of
skad [1K]
The original roots of dodder usually die. As a parasitic plant that cannot produce its own chlorophyll, it breaks away from its root system as the roots has no apparent root cap nor apical meristems. Hence the "root" is not performing its very function of water and nutrient uptake. It then produces haustoria, a root-shaped fungi which penetrates host plant which makes the dodder parasitic.
