Answer: Partial melting

Explanation: Partial melting occurs when the temperature is high enough to melt some of the materials that make up a rock but not all. This happens because a rock is not made up of a single material but different materials which have different melting points.  

As the molten or melted rock cools down it crystallizes in a process known as fractional crystallization and this is how igneous rocks are formed.

The correct answer is B. Cells divide, producing more cells.

Explanation

The cell is the basic unit of life for all living things. Likewise, it is a form of classification for them since living organisms can be classified according to the number of cells they have unicellular (a single cell), multicellular (more than one cell). In organisms that have more than one cell, they divide to produce more cells and form the organs and tissues themselves. Cell division can occur from two processes that are mitosis and meiosis in which two and four cells are produced respectively. According to the above, the correct answer is B. Cells divide and producing more cells.

Drupady [299]

The tundra is a biome on the Earth that covers approximately 20% of its land mass, and it is almost exclusively located in the Northern Hemisphere. It is an environment that helps in the regulation of the CO2 in the atmosphere, and it is one of the biggest natural CO2 sinks. The living organisms in the tundra, are using the CO2 for their needs, thus removing parts of it from the atmosphere, and when they die, because the tundra is cold, and the decomposition is very slow, most of the CO2 remains trapped, and doesn't go into the atmosphere.

Unfortunately, the global warming is slowly changing the tundra, and prolongs the summer periods, thus reducing the permafrost period of the year, so the decomposition of the living organisms is getting quicker, and also bigger percentage of the CO2 from them gets to the atmosphere.

bogdanovich [222]

The Phoenician culture was different from most other ancient civilizations because their economy relied more heavily on trade than on agriculture.

<h3>How did the Phoenicians differ from other cultures?</h3>

The Phoenicians were different from other cultures because they were primarily interested in trade. As a result, they were able to establish a massive trading empire all around the Mediterranean that was integral to trade among the various ancient civilizations.

This was quite different from other ancient cultures because most of them preferred to focus on agriculture. For instance, the ancient Egyptians focused on farming along the Nile and the Mesopotamians focused on farming thanks to the Tigris and Euphrates.

The Phoenicians would then trade these agricultural goods for the other civilizations which is why they were so important.

In conclusion, the Phoenician culture was different from other ancient civilizations because their economy relied more heavily on trade than on agriculture.
