<u>Answer: </u>

Metallic ores are produced by igneous and metamorphic processes.

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • Metallic ores are present in every type of rock and few varieties of soil. These get concentrated into "rich masses by igneous, metamorphic processes". Metals precipitate as sulphide minerals in a cooling body of magma.
  • Magmatic deposits occur when the "minerals settle to the bottom" and form layers. Metamorphic deposits rich in copper, cobalt, lead, zinc from hot solutions circulate through the rocks.
  • The solutions come from heated meteoric water. Constant changing pressures result in precipitation of sulphides or pure metal like gold, copper, silver.
  • This process is repeated again and again until the systems are filled with mineral deposits.

Why is putting rock layers in order by age useful to geologist?
iVinArrow [24]
Rock layers in order is basically natures calendar.

The highest layer is the newest formed layer 
While the deepest layer was the oldest and probably has been there from some time
And everything in between goes accordingly

So putting rocks in order by age helps scientists better understand what was there before what and how the rocks changed over time.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

a. True.

b. False.

c. True.

d. True.

Explanation:

A landform refers to a geomorphic or natural feature of the Earth's surface, which typically makes its terrain. Some examples of landforms on planet earth are mountain, plains, volcanoes, valley, hills and plateau.

Basically, the tectonic plates such as the oceanic and continental lithosphere interact in three (3) ways and these are; divergent, transform and convergent boundaries.

a. Plates shift the continents around as they move, so Earth's surface is constantly changing.

b. False: the contacts between plates are called passive margins. A passive margin is a region where continents have rifted apart and are then separated by a body of water such as an ocean.

c. True: plates may consist of both ocean floor and continental crust, but never just oceanic or continental crust.

d. True: there are 120 major tectonic plates.
