The classification of igneous rock is based on a few criteria. What are they?
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Minerals Available in Rock

Texture

Color

Chemical composition

Explanation:

There are different criteria that could be used to classify rocks that are igneous. These are:

1) Minerals Available in Rock: The minerals in a rock and their relative proportions in the rock mainly rely on the magma's chemical composition.

2) The Rock's texture: Rock texture largely relies on the magma's cooling history. Thus rocks with the same chemical composition and presence of the same minerals could have very distinct textures.

3) Color: A rock's color relies on the minerals and the size of the grain. Generally speaking, rocks containing lots of feldspar and quartz are light colored, and rocks containing lots of pyroxenes, olivines and amphiboles (minerals of ferromagnesium) are dark colored. But when applied to rocks of the same structure but distinct grain size, color can be misleading.

4) Chemical composition: The most distinctive characteristic is the chemical composition of igneous rocks. The structure generally represents the magma's structure, thus providing data about the rock's source.

While New York City's population is more than twice as large as the 2nd largest American city, Los Angeles, which statement best
solniwko [45]

Answer:

This is because despite being the largest city in the country, New York City only has around 6% of the total U.S. population when its metropolitan area is taken into account.

A primate city, on the contrary, is a city that has 20%, 30% or even 40% of the total population of the country, regardless of how much larger it is than the second city.

The United States is north of Mexico and south of Canada geographic theme
labwork [276]
If this is a true or false question, the answer is false. United States do share land borders with Mexico as well as Canada along with Russia, Bahamas and Cuba. United States then is north of Canada and south of Mexico. Hope this is the answer.
