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.

Alchen [17]

Answer:

A. Mendel observed green and yellow pea pods in a 3:1 ratio because the F1 generation was heterozygous.

Explanation:

The two true breeding plants in the parental population were homozygous (that is what true breeding means). Therefore, their cross would lead to all heterozygous offspring (see attached punnet square). Green is the dominant characteristic, so all F1 plants had a green phenotype, but Gg genotype.

The F1 cross would therefore be Gg x Gg. See attached punnet square.

The genotypes in the F2 generation are 1 GG: 2 Gg: 1 gg 1

Therefore, the phenotypic ratio is 3 green pea pods (Gg or GG): 1 yellow (gg)

The initial stage of atherosclerosis is characterized by accumulation beneath the endothelium of excessive amounts of?
kogti [31]

The initial stage of atherosclerosis is characterized by accumulation beneath the endothelium of excessive amounts of ​LDL.

  • The accumulation of lipids, cholesterol, and other chemicals in and on the artery walls is known as atherosclerosis. The accumulation is known as plaque.
  • The build-up of lipids and fibrous components in the major arteries is a hallmark of the degenerative illness known as atherosclerosis. A picture of a typical artery's anatomy can be found in Foam cells, or subendothelial accumulations of cholesterol-engorged macrophages, are the earliest lesions of atherosclerosis.
  • Nitric oxide and prostacyclin are two chemicals that are produced by your endothelium. These maintain the fluid in your blood and stop it from clotting when it shouldn't. These compounds' insufficient production is a symptom of various diseases, which raises your risk of clotting.
