Answer:

The correct answer would be A.  Fragments of rock are squeezed and cemented together.

Clastic sedimentary rocks refer to the group of rocks formed by clasts or pieces of pre-existing rocks.

Four basic steps are involved in the formation of clastic sedimentary rocks:

  • Weathering: it causes the loosening of the rocks.
  • Transportation: sediment is carried along the currents to the depression or basin.
  • Deposition: sediments are deposited and trapped in the basin.
  • Compaction: sediments are compacted and cemented together and form a rock.

The boxer crab, Lybia tesselata, carries a small pair of anemones in its claws. When approached by a predator, it waves the anem
PtichkaEL [24]

This is a symbiotic relationship between the Boxer crab and sea anemone.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

The symbiosis is a type of relationship between two species which has benifit for both the participating organisms.

Here in case of boxer crab, the crab gets the help from the sea anemone in the form of protection. The sea anemone chases the predators and thereby saves the organism from being hunted.

On the other hand, the sea anemone gets food from the crab's prey which he hunts.

So there's a benifit for both.

I NEED HELP The measure of how resistant a solid is to shape change when a force is applied.
enyata [817]

<em>Hardness is a measure of how resistant solid matter is to various kinds of permanent shape change when a force is applied</em> <em>Macroscopic hardness is generally characterized by</em> <em>strong intermolecular bonds</em>, <em>but the behavior of solid materials under force is complex; therefore,</em> <em>there are different measurements of hardness</em>: <em>scratch hardness, indentation hardness, and rebound hardness. Hardness is dependent on ductility, elastic stiffness, plasticity, strain, strength, toughness, viscoelasticity, and viscosity. Common examples of hard matter are ceramics, concrete, certain metals, and super hard materials, which can be contrasted with soft matter.</em>
