A. Basalt
Basalt is a fine-grained, dark-colored extrusive igneous rock composed mainly of plagioclase and pyroxene. The specimen shown is about two inches (five centimeters) across. Diorite is a coarse-grained, intrusive igneous rock that contains a mixture of feldspar, pyroxene, hornblende, and sometimes quartz.
Answer:
An organism's niche includes food, shelter, its predators, the temperature, the amount of moisture the organism needs to survive, etc. When two or more individuals or populations try to use the same limited resources such as food, water, shelter, space, or sunlight, it is called competition.
Explanation:
A subsurface rock layer that is composed of clay and bedrock and is an impermeable barrier to water flow would be described as a(n) <u>aquifer(option b)</u>.
An aquifer is an underground layer of water-bearing permeable rock, rock fractures or unconsolidated materials (gravel, sand, or silt).
The study of water flow in aquifers and the characterization of aquifers is called hydrogeology. Aquifers occur from near-surface to deeper than 9,000 metres (30,000 ft).
There are three different types of aquifers: confined, unconfined, and perched. Recharge zones are typically at higher altitudes but can occur wherever water enters an aquifer, such as from rain, snowmelt, river and reservoir leakage, or from irrigation.

#SPJ4
For a reaction to occur, substrate particles need to collide with each other with enough force (To overcome activation energy), at the right orientation for a successful collision, causing a reaction to occur.
Enzyme catalysts are a type of protein that has a specific 3 dimensional conformation. They have specific reaction sites called active sites. Substrates collides with the enzyme and binds to the active site if it fits to the specific 3 dimensional conformation. This allows bonds to be either formed or broken for reactions to occur.
This process provides an alternative reaction pathway with lower activation energy to enable the rate of reaction to increase.
