levacccp [35]

Answer:

Carbonate sedimentary rocks

Explanation:

Carbonate sedimentary rocks are the rocks that are primarily comprised of carbonate minerals such as calcite or aragonite. They are formed chemically. These rocks are formed when Carbon is initially trapped with the accumulation of sediments over it in association with fossil shells. They are also formed due to the dissolution or precipitation by groundwater, depending upon the temperature, pH and dissolved ions present in the solution.

They are often marked by the presence of karst topography and caves.

Some examples of these rocks are limestone and dolomite.

Answer:

Earth Makes Star Positions Change and Constellations Are Not Constant

Explanation:

As the planet rotates, the moon and stars appear to move across the sky just the way the sun does during the day.

Stars that you see at night belong to the Milky Way galaxy. The sun sits on one of the galaxy's arms and rotates around the center of the galaxy. Other stars in the galaxy follow their own orbits as well.
