Answer: Option B.

Minerals can change color base on impurities.

Explanation:

Minerals are naturally occurring inorganic solids that have lattice structure and chemical composition.

Color alone is not reliable to identify minerals because minerals can change color base on impurities. Some minerals may have more than one color.

Minerals can best be identified base on their physical properties which is related to their chemical composition and bonding. Hardness, lustre, cleavage and how it's react to acid can be use to identify minerals.

postnew [5]
The appropriate answer is B. Throughfall. These nutrients are transported via the process of throughfall where rain flows from leaves to the ground. Rainforests receive high annual rainfall. The leaves are also designed to funnel water to the ground soon after a shower. Leaves are equipped with drip tips to allow water to roll of leaves easily. Any particles deposited on leaves are going to be washed to the forest floor by frequent rainfall that occurs here.
