Answer:
Texture is not one of the five criteria listed for the strict definition of a mineral.
Explanation:
A mineral is generally defined as a naturally occurring solid chemical compound which is present in its pure from. A substance is said to be a mineral, if it satisfies the following five criteria: <u>naturally occurring, solid, inorganic, ordered internal structure, definite chemical composition.</u>
Therefore, a mineral is a naturally occurring solid inorganic substance with a well-defined chemical composition and specific crystalline structure.
<u>Therefore, we can say that</u><u> texture</u><u> is not one of the criteria that defines a mineral.</u>
Answer is C. Deegeees north and south of the equator
Answer:
<u>Wegener gave many evidence to the theory of plate tectonics another piece of evidence was the finding of fossils of reptiles in oceans and glossiperious fauna and the similarity of glaciers in all continents</u>
Explanation:
- Alfred Wegener is supposed to believe that the supercontinent named Pangaea consisting of northern continents and the southern continent i.e Gondwanaland consisting of southern continents were once the same.
- Thus he gave evidence in the shape of puzzle-like fit of the continents as similarity of rocks found in the continent's of Africa and South America, as they were one earlier.
- Further, he gave the supporting pieces of evidence as the glacier landmasses distributed were the same part earlier drifted away from the larger continent of Greenland.
- The supporting evidence the put forth was the polar wandering forces that he called the flight from poles and drift under the impact of moons gravity and another evidence was the thin sheets or plate moved away due to the wind.
After a lot of research on the answers to questions 48 through 50 on the rock columns and studying the picture of the rock columns, the answer is easy to understand.
All of the rock columns in the pictures each represent four separated locations of W, X, Y, and Z. The numbered fossil that will best represent an index fossil will be the picture of the rock column number 1.
The correct answer choice will be number 1, 1.
Russia, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Iran and Azerbaijan all border the Caspian Sea.
