Answer:
b- It is a spontaneous process.
Explanation:
Passive transport is the type of transport of substances across the plasma membrane that occurs without energy expenditure and occurs spontaneously. There is no energy expenditure during passive transport because substances naturally move from the more concentrated to the less concentrated medium, ie in favor of the concentration gradient.
Substance transport occurs until concentrations inside and outside the cell are equalized.
According to this conceptualization we can conclude that the correct answer to your question is the letter B.
Granite is a type of intrusive igneous rock
Explanation:
An igneous rock formed from hot magma or lava cools, solidifies or crystallizes to form rocks.
Based on the rate of cooling of magma, igneous rocks can either be intrusive or extrusive.
A slow cooling of the magma deep within the earth without reaching the surface of the volcano leads to the production of intrusive igneous rocks.
This slow cooling leads to crystallization forming large crystals visible to the eyes with a phaneritic texture.
Granite has the best phaneritic texture among intrusive igneous rocks. Granite crystals can be easily visualized and are constituted by minerals like white feldspar, black hornblende, translucent quartz, and platy black biotite.
Extrusive igneous rocks like basalt are formed from microscopic crystals from fast cooling of magma.
Answer:
Yes, Mass Extinctions May Have Been Caused By Meteors, as the probability of mass extinction occurring after an asteroid that could hit a random location on the Earth's surface was approximately 13% when the Chicxulub-scale asteroid hit the Earth.
Soot could be the main cause of mass extinction after an asteroid impact.
The answer is "All of the above".
