Answer:

Sills and d(i)kes

Explanation:

Sills are distinct geological features that are usually found in an outcrop. These are considered to be a concordant igneous intrusive body that is oriented parallel to the country rocks.

On the other hand, d(i)kes is the discordant igneous intrusive body that cuts across the country rocks, at some angle or in a perpendicular manner.

Both these features are important and they are sometimes comprised of valuable minerals in them, and they are younger than the adjacent and surrounding country rocks.

Alina [70]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The correct answer is false because Reabsorption of water and other filtered solutes like vitamins, sodium e.t.c. take place in the proximal convoluted tubules.

Reabsorption is when water and solutes in the PCT are removed and moved back into the blood and it's a process that take place through bulk transport.

The solutes and water are transported from the PCT to the interstitium and then move into peri-tubular capillaries and reabsorption in PCT is isosmotic i.e solutes have the same osmotic pressure.
