Answer:

Extrusive igneous rock is formed by the crystallization of magma release after volcanic eruption at the Earth surface. They are characterized by fine grained textures because of rapid cooling they do not form large crystals. Extrusive rocks  with fine grained textures are called aphanitic rocks. The most common extrusive igneous rock is basalt. Other examples include rhyolite, andesite and obsidian. Extrusive igneous rocks erupt quickly and they form small crystals. Some of these rocks cools slowly that they form glass. These rocks includes andesite, basalt, dacite, obsidian, pumice, rhyolite, scoria and tuff.  

The common characteristic of extrusive igneous rock is the b. forms crystals

Rapid cooling of magma produces small crystal rocks.

The answer is; C

Extrusive rock is one that forms when magma finds its way to the surface of the earth. The lava cools quite fast compared to intrusive rock that cools before it reaches the earth's surface. Lava that cools fast forms small crystals. Examples of extrusive rocks include; basalt, obsidian, and rhyolite.   Intrusive rocks cool slowly and form large crystals.

Ok. Lets pretend you see a habitat in the wood. You see the food chain of all the animals. mouse, fox, bear, human. Lets say a zoo decides to get rid of their foxes and dumps them in this forest. Then, instead of 20, you have 30 foxes. All of the mice are gone in a matter of weeks. So the Foxes start to slowly drop out. Then, theres not much for the bears to eat, so the bears start dying. Then, the humans can't hunt bears. It sets the whole chain of the forest off. Next, the humans will switch to dears, and all the dears will be killed off... etc... etc... Make sense? Got a question? Message me for more details and more questions!

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

In the genetic code, each triplet of nucleotides (i.e., each codon) determines one specific amino acid or one-stop codon. The genetic code is not overlapping, which means that the same letter in the genetic code (nucleotide) cannot be used for two different codons. There are 64 possible combinations of triplets of nucleotides, 61 of them determine amino acids, while three triplets determine stop codons (UAG, UAA, and UGA) that indicate the termination of translation. Moreover, the genetic code is also degenerate, which means that one amino acid can be coded by more than one codon.
