18. Penny: Used to measure mineral toughness; Cuprum penny's toughness is 3.

Hand Lens: Could be used to measure the hardness of the mineral; the glass can be used as a scratch platform; it can also be used to test the luster of the mineral tile; the mineral is rubbed in the glass portion of the tile and a powdery strike of the stone is given to distinguish the colour of the rock.

Geological hammer: Used to break down the mineral to assess whether or not it has cleavage, and to detect fractures

Pocketknife: Used to define mineral tenacity; the tenacity of the mineral can be silky, malleable, sectile, elastic, or flexible.

17. Volcanoes are holes or cracks in the lava-flowing crust of the earth. They are normally placed on the borders of tectonic plates as they are created as the plates clash and create gaps. In other words, volcanoes located at convergent-plate boundaries.

ale4655 [162]

The correct answer is the type and sequence of molecules along each strand.

The DNA is formed of molecules known as nucleotides. Each nucleotide comprises a sugar group, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base. The four kinds of nitrogen bases are thymine (T), adenine (A), cytosine (C), and uracil (U). The order of these bases is what that determines the genetic code or the DNA instructions.

Which of the following objects will exert the greatest gravitational force on a box, if the distance between them stays the same

Mumz [18]

Answer:

D). 8 kg mass

Explanation:

Acceleration of Falling Objects

Heavier things have a greater gravitational force AND heavier things have a lower acceleration. It turns out that these two effects exactly cancel to make falling objects have the same acceleration regardless of mass.

The greater an object's mass, the greater its gravitational force. The earth has a strong attracting force for objects with smaller mass (including the moon), and the sun has an attracting force on the earth and other planets in our solar system. ... The stronger the pull of gravity on an object, the greater its weight.

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Taproot systems feature a single, thick primary root, called the taproot, with smaller secondary roots growing out from the sides. The taproot may penetrate as many as 60 meters (almost 200 feet) below the ground surface. It can plumb very deep water sources and store a lot of food to help the plant survive drought and other environmental extremes. The taproot also anchors the plant very securely in the ground.

Fibrous root systems have many small branching roots, called fibrous roots, but no large primary root. The huge number of threadlike roots increases the surface area for absorption of water and minerals, but fibrous roots anchor the plant less securely
