Answer:

1. When magma solidifies underground, the resulting landform is classified as Intrusive rocks.

2. Lava cooling on the surface of the earth forms Extrusive igneous rocks features.

3. A very large mineral is more likely to be found in Igneous rock.

4. Lava is magma that forms in long, horizontal shafts in the earth’s crust.

5. Lava with high basalt content forms high ferromagnetism through multiple eruptions.

Explanation:

1. Intrusive rock is formed when magma penetrates existing rock, crystallizes and solidifies underground to form intrusions. Intrusive rock forms within Earth's crust from the crystallization of magma.

2. Extrusive igneous rocks form when magma reaches the Earth's surface of a volcano and cools quickly. Most extrusive rocks have small crystals.

3. Igneous rock or magmatic rock, is one of the 3 main rock types. The other 2 are called sedimentary and metamorphic. Igneous rock is formed through the cooling and solidification of magma or lava.

4. Lava is molten rock generated by geothermal energy and expelled through fractures in planetary crust or in an eruption, usually at temperatures from 1.292 to 2.192 °F.

5. Mafic or basaltic lavas are best known by their high ferromagnesian content.

Eruptions associated with basaltic lava usually are not explosive due to the low silica and gas content.

Because of the low viscosity, basaltic lava flows spread out, forming extensive layers. They may build up to form a large shield volcano.

What was the main purpose for meeting at yalta?

ololo11 [35]

Explanation:

The conference was held near Yalta in Crimea, Soviet Union, within the Livadia, Yusupov, and Vorontsov Palaces. The aim of the conference was to shape a post-war peace that represented not just a collective security order but a plan to give self-determination to the liberated peoples of post-Nazi Europe.

Hope this helps at least a lil bit!! :)

An unconformity is found in a geologic cross section. what does this indicate happened in this area? deformation erosion an eart

Inessa05 [86]

The unconformity that is found in a geological cross section indicates that in this area erosion happened.
Erosion is a natural process in which the surface of the Earth (soil, rock, or dissolved material) gets worn down.
The cause for erosion can be wind, water, glacier ice or other natural element.

2. What effect did the geography of ancient Greece have on its early development?

Alik [6]

Answer:

The geography of ancient Greece determined and restricted its development to only certain areas, such as sea trade.

Explanation:

Ancient Greece, or rather the Hellenic city-states, are considered as one of the most developed civilizations of their time, though there can be made a solid case against it. Anyhow, in the early stages of the development of these city-states, they were very restricted in their development because of geographic factors.

The climate was of the Mediterranean type, which is a good climate, but problem was that the topography was rugged and mountainous, so agriculture was very limited to only a handful of crops and herding. Because all of the city-states had access to the sea, they focused on developing trade through it, with goods such as grapes, wine, olives, olives, and olive oil the most traded. They needed good wood for building ships, and they didn't really have any of that type. This made them heavily dependent on the Macedonians who had an abundance of wood, and considering that there was open hate between the two, it was not an ideal situation.

How do air masses affect the weather of a region

Amanda [17]

Air masses can bring anything from tropical warm and humid days to arctic cold depending on the type of it. Fronts form the boundaries of air masses with differing properties.
