<span>Rocks can best be identified by their mineral content. This is because rocks are composed of one or multiple numbers of minerals. Quartz, calcite, feldspars, and micas are examples of minerals that make rock formations possible.

Rocks are the basic component of the Earth's crust. Mountains, hills, and volcanoes are examples of rock formations that occur through time on Earth. One can find rocks all over the Earth and most are usually under the soil. Rocks can be further classified as igneous, sedimentary, or metamorphic rocks.</span>

Which THREE statements correctly describe the properties of water?
grandymaker [24]
<em>CORRECT STATEMENTS
> Water forms hydrogen bonds with other polar molecules. </em>
<em>> Water is a polar molecule. </em>
<em>> Water dissolves more ionic compounds.</em> 

<em />Water is a polar molecule because of its uneven distribution of electron density. It is made up of two hydrogen atoms and one positive atom.
Since water is a polar molecule, it forms hydrogen bonds with other polar molecules. Though these bonds are relatively weak, however, there are so many of them present in water. 
Water also dissolves most ionic compounds due to the fact that water is a universal solvent. When these compounds are added to water, there will be an interaction between the individual ions and the polar regions of the water molecules and disrupts the ionic bonds. 

<em>INCORRECT </em>
> Liquid water is less dense than water vapor. - Liquid water has a higher density than water vapor. The fact that water vapor rises indicates that it is less dense than water.

>Water dissolves more hydrophobic substances. - Hydrophobic substances do not dissolve easily in water. It is termed as 'hydrophobic" because it means water-fearing.

Will a female only inherit a sex linked disorder if her father suffers from the same disorder, and if her mother is a carrier fo
muminat

Answer:

The female will not inherit a sex linked disorder if her father suffers rather "have chances or the disorder if the mother is the carrier" for the disorder.

Explanation:

A female has 2 X chromosome, which she got from her parents each. The females will get the disorder or the defective gene if the mother has defective X chromosome or if the father is carrying the same disorder from his father(grandfather). In both the cases the female will be the carrier and have chances to inherit the defect to the offspring. But the female will  not affect as the  male will. As the female has 2 X chromosomes, and hence the dominant X will compensate for the error in recessive X.

Ber [7]

Answer:

Although wind makes up about 8% of total U.S. electricity generating capacity, wind generators provided a smaller share (5%) of total U.S. electricity generation in 2016 because wind turbines have relatively low capacity factors.
