The following tests can determine the mineral in a rock specimen:
1. How does the rock crumble or split under pressure?
2. What is the texture of the rock?
3. Observing it under a magnifying lens.
4. Determine the color of the rock
Test 1 and 3 determines if the rock is granular and the types of grains in the rock. Test 3 also determines if the rock has layers hence sedimentary rock.
Determining whether color of the rock is dark or light also helps identify the mineral and type of rock.
Answer:
The transport protein-hormone complexes of lipid soluble proteins can not cross the filtration membrane of glomerulus.
Explanation:
Steroid hormones are water-insoluble (hydrophobic) in nature. Since blood has watery medium, the plasma, the lipid-soluble hormones travel in blood through transport proteins. The transport protein-hormone complexes are too large to cross the filtration membrane of glomerulus. The impermeability of the filtration membrane of glomerulus for protein-hormone complexes increases the half-life of lipid-soluble proteins.
Nitrogen fixation is a process that changes nitrogen within plants and soil into"nitrogen compounds"
Answer:
"The smallpox vaccine does not contain smallpox virus and cannot spread or cause smallpox. However, the vaccine does contain another virus called vaccinia which is live in the vaccine. Because the virus is alive, it can spread to other parts of the body or to other people from the vaccine site."
