What experiments did Tuttle and Bowen perform? a. tests of the temperature and pressure conditions required to melt granite and
form magma b. tests of the temperature and pressure conditions required to melt basalt and form magma c. tests of the temperature and pressure conditions required to generate granite from basalt d. tests of the temperature and pressure conditions required to generate basalt from granite
Tuttle and Bowen conducted a study in 1958 after which the study of modern granite started. They also determined whether granite is igneous rock or not. Some of the prominent remarks that were concluded after the experiment by Tuttle and Bowen are
- A) When a silicate is melted at lower temperature, it contain equal proportions of Ab, Q and Or
- B) Felsic rock form at the end of the fractional crystallization of mafic rock
C) Determined the temperature and pressure at which high and low granite crystal melts and what is the impact on melting if Ab, Q and Or are present
Answer: Weather can change from minute-to-minute, hour-to-hour, day-to-day, and season-to-season. Climate, is the average of weather over time and space.
