Jill hypothesizes that individual volcanoes produce igneous rocks with a certain chemical signature. She further hypothesizes th
at scientists could use an igneous rock's chemical signature to determine where the rock came from. What type of investigation should Jill perform to test her hypothesis? A. perform a controlled experiment on a volcano B. model the formation of an igneous rock C. collect and test rock specimens D. observe and describe a volcanic eruption
Hypothesis is referred to as an assumption or wild guess that needs to be tested to arrive at a scientifically established theory,
Here, Jill proposes a hypothesis which states that igneous rocks produced by volcanoes constitute some kind of chemical that could be used by scientists to estimate the origin of the rocks.
This hypothesis can be tested only by collecting the rock samples and testing them to arrive at a scientifically proven fact.
An earthquake is caused by a sudden slip on a fault.When the stress on the edge overcomes the friction, there is an earthquake that releases energy in waves that travel through the earth's crust and cause the shaking that we feel. In California there are two plates - the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate.
A fault scrap is a small offset of the ground surface moves vertically with the respect to the other and the faulting is attributes to the displacement of the land with the movement along the faults and is indicated by the consequent erosion along the geologic faults. They are hard and weak rocks and the scrap formation is equal to the vertical weight displaced.
All of the other events can be explained by colliding worlds in the early solar system but the asteroid belt can't. The asteroid belt originated from the primitive solar nebula as a congregation of planetesimals, which were the precursors of the protoplanets.
