Phaneritic

Explanation:

Igneous rock textures most likely to have formed below the earth's surface are termed phaneritic textures.

A rock texture is the arrangement of minerals in a mass of rock body.

During crystallization of melt, different texture attributes can be used to delineate the environment where a rock forms.

Rocks that cools beneath the earth crust are called intrusive igneous rocks. They allow for enough time for mineral grains to grow due to little nucleation centers forming at the same time.

Big grains of minerals gives the rock mass a coarse texture said to be phaneritic.

Extrusive and volcanic rocks usually forms glassy and aphanitic textures.

The correct response will be Option B i.e Increase in

<u>Strength of Hurricanes</u>

  • As the air continues to warm due to climate change, hurricanes can hold more water vapor, producing more intense rainfall rates in a storm. Moreover, according to Knutson, most models show that climate change brings a slight increase in hurricane wind intensity.
<h3><u>Why are hurricanes increasing in strength?</u></h3>
  • Physics suggests that as the world warms, hurricanes and other tropical cyclones should get stronger, because warmer water provides more of the energy that fuels these storms. And climate simulations have long showed an increase in stronger hurricanes as warming continues

Leona [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

Scientists have been able to determine that the melting of ice from Greenland ice sheet will reduce the rate of Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) which is an important part of the global ocean current that determines the climate and controls Gulf stream. It as been inferred by researchers that this could affect climatic conditions in places like Europe and North America in the future.

The influx of fresh water from Greenland which is made up of runoff from ice, tundra and ice discharge will weaken the AMOC and this as both local and global effects on climate.
