Answer:

The correct option is <u>b. rate of cooling</u>

Explanation:

The <u>magmatic rock </u>also known as the <u>igneous rock</u>, is one of the three principal rock types, sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic.

The igneous rocks are also called primary rocks, as they crystallize from a liquid. They are formed by the process of <u>cooling and solidification of lava or magma.</u>

The<u> rate of cooling </u>of the melt determines the<u> texture </u>of the igneous rocks. If the cooling occurs slowly, large crystals are formed. But fast cooling results in the formation small crystals. <u>Therefore, the size of the crystal formed is determined by the rate of cooling.</u>

Question 19 (1 point)
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

b) A series of stars that form a figure

Explanation:

In astronomy, <em>a constellation is any of certain groupings of stars that form an imaginary outline or pattern on the celestial sphere. </em>They are useful to track artificial satellites and in assisting astronomers and navigators to locate certain stars, therefore constellation is a series of stars that form a figure. A constellation can't be a region of the celestial sphere and all of the stars in it because not all stars in the celestial sphere form figures.

They are no figures in the night sky because constellations are starts, therefore they are present during day or night, it's not a term applicable to astrology because this is a pseudoscience not based on facts, like astronomy.

I hope you find this interesting and useful! Good luck!
