The way that a mineral breaks can help to identify that mineral. Some minerals have a tendency to split evenly along specific or straight planes, this is called cleavage; other minerals break in more of an irregular pattern is called as fracture.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Cleavage refers to the manner in which a few minerals break along specific lines of shortcoming in their structure. Mica is a best example as it breaks along firmly divided level planes that yield slim sheets.

Calcite is another genuine model, breaking along three distinct planes that yield blocky pieces that resemble a rectangular box that has been twisted.  On the other hand, fracture is the propensity of a mineral to break along bended surfaces that don't have planes and break in a irregular pattern.

QUESTION 40
kiruha [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is motion.

Explanation:

Lipids are the important constituents of plasma membrane. For example phospholipid,glycolipid,splingolipid,cholesterol builds most of the structural framework of the cell membrane.

Lipids plays an important role during cell signaling For example the phosphotidy inositol 4,5 bisphosphate one of important component of  the inner leaflet of the the plasma membrane undergo hydrolysis to form Diacylglycerol(DAG) and inositol triphosphate(IP3).Both IP3 and DAG act as second messenger.

Lipid act as an insulator of myelein sheath that helps in the saltatory conduction of nerve impulse across the axon of unmyelinated nerve fibre.

 Lipid does not involve in motion

Why do the ospring of meiosis result in greater genetic variation than the ospring of mitosis?
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

While in mitosis, genes are generally transferred faithfully from one cellular generation to the next; in meiosis and subsequent sexual reproduction, genes get mixed up. Sexual reproduction actually expands the variety created by meiosis, because it combines the different varieties of parental genotypes.

Explanation:

I did research

Compare and contrast what happens in mitosis and meiosis and discuss the importance of each process to a living organism.
Semenov [28]

In mitosis, the first stage is prophase. The nucleolus disappears and the two centrosomes begin to form the mitotic spindle. The spindle xtends between two opposite poles f the cell. Next is the metaphase. The centromeres of the chromatid pairs align at the center of the miotic spindle. Then anaphase, the centromeres will split that separates the chromatid pair. They are now called chromosomes. The last phase is the telophase. The chromosomes will then form a thread-like chromatin and for ache envelope, a nucleoli appears. <span>The type of cell division that produces gametes with half the normal chromosome number is the meiosis. Meiosis is the type of cell division used in sexual reproduction. It will occur in the testes and ovaries.</span>
