Which f the following is not a characteristic of igneous rock

Answer:

There are no answers but here is how you classify one with these characteristics so if its not on here probably that one hope this helps :)!

Explanation:

Igneous rocks are formed when melted lava or magma cools and crystallizes, and their unique traits are based on this process. They are strong because their mineral grains grow together tightly as they cool, and their minerals are usually black, white, or gray. They have a texture similar to something baked in an oven, like black bread or peanut brittle.  Some of the main minerals in igneous rocks are feldspar, quartz, olivine and mica. The size of the minerals depends on the depth of the magma that formed the rock. Deeper magma cools more slowly and forms larger crystals. Rocks that cool over a few months have microscopic mineral grains and are called extrusive. Rocks that cool over thousands of years have small to medium grains and are called intrusive. Rocks that cool over millions of years have large pebble sized grains and are called plutonic.  Granite and basalt make up the majority of igneous rocks. Basalt is dark and fine-grained with minerals rich in magnesium and iron. It is either extrusive or intrusive and is the primary rock on the ocean floor. Granite is light and coarse-grained and rich in feldspar and quartz. It is plutonic and less dense than basalt. Granite is found nearly everywhere beneath the continents.  The word "igneous" comes from the Latin word "fire" and is related to the melting process that forms these rocks.

<h2>My Answer:</h2>

FTP: The definition on Wikipedia is; "The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a standard network protocol used for the transfer of computer files between a client and server on a computer network."

So, if the question is asking for technology that provides a method for two computers hooked to the internet transfer files back and forth between each other, so if we can sum it up the answer which makes the most sense is <em>FTP</em>.

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

recall

Explanation:

Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that this was a recall measure of memory. In the field of neuroscience, a recall test refers to a type of test in which subjects are shows a certain stimuli and are later asked to remember as many stimuli as they can. Which in the case of the Godden and Baddeley (1975) study the stimuli were a set of words that were shown to the subjects.

What is an 8086 microprocessor used for
Liula [17]
A sixteen bit microprocessor chip used in early IBM PCs. The Intel 8088 was a version with an eight-bit externaldata bus.

The Intel 8086 was based on the design of the Intel 8080 <span>and </span>Intel 8085 (it was source compatible with the 8080)with a similar register set, but was expanded to 16 bits. The Bus Interface Unit fed the instruction stream to theExecution Unit through a 6 byte prefetch queue, so fetch and execution were concurrent - a primitive form ofpipelining (8086 instructions varied from 1 to 4 bytes).

It featured four 16-bit general registers, which could also be accessed as eight 8-bit registers, and four 16-bit indexregisters (including the stack pointer). The data registers were often used implicitly by instructions, complicatingregister allocation for temporary values. It featured 64K 8-bit I/O (or 32K 16 bit) ports and fixed vectored interrupts.There were also four segment registers that could be set from index registers.

The segment registers allowed the CPU to access 1 meg of memory in an odd way. Rather than just supplyingmissing bytes, as most segmented processors, the 8086 actually shifted the segment registers left 4 bits and addedit to the address. As a result, segments overlapped, and it was possible to have two pointers with the same valuepoint to two different memory locations, or two pointers with different values pointing to the same location. Mostpeople consider this a brain damaged design.

Although this was largely acceptable for assembly language, where control of the segments was complete (it couldeven be useful then), in higher level languages it caused constant confusion (e.g. near/far pointers). Even worse, thismade expanding the address space to more than 1 meg difficult. A later version, the Intel 80386, expanded thedesign to 32 bits, and "fixed" the segmentation, but required extra modes (suppressing the new features) forcompatibility, and retains the awkward architecture. In fact, with the right assembler, code written for the 8008 canstill be run on the most <span>recent </span>Intel 486.

The Intel 80386 added new op codes in a kludgy fashion similar to the Zilog Z80 and Zilog Z280. The Intel 486added full pipelines, and clock doubling (like <span>the </span>Zilog Z280).

So why did IBM chose the 8086 series when most of the alternatives were so much better? Apparently IBM's own engineers wanted to use the Motorola 68000, and it was used later in the forgotten IBM Instruments 9000 Laboratory Computer, but IBM already had rights to manufacture the 8086, in exchange for giving Intel the rights to its bubble memory<span> designs.</span> Apparently IBM was using 8086s in the IBM Displaywriter word processor.

Other factors were the 8-bit Intel 8088 version, which could use existing Intel 8085-type components, and allowed the computer to be based on a modified 8085 design. 68000 components were not widely available, though it could useMotorola 6800 components to an <span>extent.

An indication of delayed fuel ignition could be​
Sophie [7]

Answer:

The ignition delay in a diesel engine is defined as the time interval between the start of injection and the start of combustion. This delay period consists of (a) physical delay, wherein atomisation, vaporization and mixing of air fuel occur and (b) of chemical delay attributed to pre-combustion reactions. Physical and chemical delays occur simultaneously.

Hope This Helps!     Have A Nice Day!!
