Answer:

A volcano with basaltic magma would probably not erupt, but remain in the magma chamber and cool .

Explanation:

   There are three main types of magma, according to the silica (SiO2) content - basaltic magma, andesitic magma and rhyolitic magma.

  Basaltic magmas, originating from the melting of mantle rocks, contain about 50% silica and a low content of dissolved gases. This type of magma is essentially expelled along rifts and ocean-level hot spots. Their constitution varies, depending on the environmental constraints in which they are generated, such as pressure and temperature. These magmas are characterized by the viscosity - related to density, silica richness, temperature and the amount of fluid they contain - which determines their rate of ascent.

  When basaltic magmas accumulate in magmatic chambers, at depths of 10 to 30 km, they solidify and give rise to plutonic rocks such as gabbro. When basaltic magmas rise faster than they cool, they solidify and form volcanic rocks, such as basalts.

Explain how agriculture is related to human settlements
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Agriculture allowed people to stay in one place, and increased food production caused the population density to expand far beyond levels that could be sustained by hunting and gathering alone. This growth in population density provided a critical mass of people to sustain and spread contagious infectious diseases.

An open lake is a lake where water constantly flows out under almost all climatic circumstances. Because water does not remain in an open lake for any length of time, open lakes are usually fresh water: dissolved solids do not accumulate. Open lakes form in areas where precipitation is greater than evaporation. Because most of the world's water is found in areas of highly effective rainfall, most lakes are open lakes whose water eventually reaches the sea. For instance, the Great Lakes' water flows into the St. Lawrence River and eventually the Atlantic Ocean.

In a closed lake (see endorheic drainage), no water flows out, and water which is not evaporated will remain in a closed lake indefinitely. This means that closed lakes are usually saline, though this salinity varies greatly from around three parts per thousand for most of the Caspian Sea to as much as 400 parts per thousand for the Dead Sea. Only the less salty closed lakes are able to sustain life, and it is completely different from that in rivers or freshwater open lakes. Closed lakes typically form in areas where evaporation is greater than rainfall, although most closed lakes actually obtain their water from a region with much higher precipitation than the area around the lake itself, which is often a depression of some sort.
