I think the correct answer is the second option. The best isotope to be used in dating metamorphic rocks would be potassium-40. It is the most common and is widely appliclable since most of metamorphic rocks have potassium in it. The isotope system used is potassium-argon.

What is a reducing sugar?
icang [17]
Reducing sugar is any sugar (all monosaccharides, some disaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides) that is capable of acting as a reducing agent because it contains free aldehyde group or free ketone group.

Aldehyde group or alkanal is an organic compound containing formyl group. The formyl group is a functional group consisting of a carbonyl center bonded to hydrogen and an R group. This group can be readily reduced to primary alcohol with the help of catalyctic hydrogenation either applied directly or by transfer hydrogenation.

Ketone group unlike aldehyde group does not have a hydrogen atome bonded to the carbonyl group but it can still be hydrogenated.

What happens to the warm, less dense material inside earth? (WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!) HURRY
Leokris [45]

Answer: <u>Sinks towards the outer core </u>

Explanation: The material which is less dense, means it is lighter in weight. Such substances tend to move more towards the crust of the Earth, whereas the heavier substances like iron, is more towards the core or centre of the Earth. This is because heavier substances tend to sink deeper. That’s why the light elements are found in the crust section of the Earth.

A, B, and C. Luster is the light and how light reflects off of it, right?
So, in that case, a non metallic mineral, (think coal) wouldn’t shine much. A metallic mineral would shine, because it’s metal. And something that’s shiny obviously shines.
Go with A B and C.
