How does igneous rock become sedimentary rock?

Biology
1 answer:
Zinaida [17]3 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

Igneous rock can form underground, where the magma cools slowly. Or, igneous rock can form above ground, where the magma cools quickly. When it pours out on Earth's surface, magma is called lava. In this way, igneous rock can become sedimentary rock.

Any rock (igneous, sedimentary, or metamorphic) can become a metamorphic rock. If rocks are buried deep in the Earth at high temperatures and pressures, they form new minerals and textures all without melting. If melting occurs, magma is formed, starting the rock cycle all over again.

Blood cells are _____ in shape because they lack a nucleus.
sesenic [268]


Red blood cells are disc shaped. It is thought one factor that allows them to have this shape is because they do not have a nucleus. This tends to increase amount of space inside the cell for hemoglobin.

They have a flexible disc shape which helps increase the surface- to- area volume ratio  which enables oxygen and carbon dioxide to diffuse across the red blood cell's plasma membrane more readily.

Their disc shape also enables them to squeeze through tiny capillaries that are half their size .
