The right option is C. Magma is injected into surrounding rock forming an igneous intrusive.

An igneous intrusion is a formation in which magma rises up below the surface of the Earth and intrude into other rocks located above it forming an igneous intrusive and leaving them in a dome shape. The magma cools and solidifies before it gets to the surface and it is later exposed as the broken sedimentary rock on top of it gradually wears away. The two types of igneous intrusion are; intrusive and extrusive rocks.

Metamorphic rocks that don’t have layers
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer;

-Non-foliated metamorphic rocks

-Metamorphic rocks that don’t have layers are called non-foliated metamorphic rocks.

Explanation;

-Metamorphic rocks are rocks that go through heat and pressure and change form. They can be formed by pressures deep inside the Earth, by tectonic processes such as continental collisions, or when they are heated up by an intrusion of hot molten rock called magma from the Earth's interior.

-Foliated metamorphic rocks have a layered or banded appearance that is produced by exposure to heat and directed pressure, they include rocks such as gneiss, phyllite, schist, and slate.

-On the other hand,Non-foliated metamorphic rocks do not have a layered or banded appearance, they include rocks such as hornfels, marble, quartzite, and novaculite.

Which statement would be true of a membrane-bound protein that works in conjunction with a sodium–potassium pump during secondar
Rudik [331]

Answer:

The correct answer is option d. "Its conformation will change when both an ion and a small molecule bind to it".

Explanation:

The secondary active transport is a form of active transport at which a ion (typically Na+ or H+)  is transferred down its electrochemical gradient to the uphill movement of another molecule. Secondary active transport takes place by the conjunctive work of membrane-bound proteins and sodium–potassium pumps. During secondary active transport, both of these proteins change its conformation when an ion and a small molecule bind to it. This change in conformation makes possible that the ions and the small molecules pass through the membrane.
