Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

Slate is a metamorphic rock which is characterized by the presence of fine grains that forms foliated structure.

Schist is a high-grade metamorphic rock which commonly characterized by the presence of foliated minerals.

The above-given condition describes the grade of metamorphism, where a low-grade metamorphic rock changes into a high-grade metamorphic rock due to the increase in the temperature and the pressure condition.

Slate is a low-grade metamorphic rock that changes into another metamorphic rock named Phyllite and because of the further increase in the temperature-pressure condition, it changes into a higher grade metamorphic rock named schist.

Phyllite is a metamorphic rock that is mainly comprised of minerals such as quartz, mica, and some chlorite.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

The climate in northern Russia determines the vegetation is mostly<br> what?
OLga [1]

The climate in northern Russia determines the vegetation to be of tundra type.

Explanation:

Northern Russia is on a very high latitude, and very close to the North Pole. Because this area receives very little and very scattered sunlight, it is very cold for most of the year. That has resulted in the area being frozen for most of the year, the growing season to be very short, and the soil quality very poor.

The vegetation that exists here has had to develop special adaptations because of the extreme conditions. It is vegetation of tundra type. This vegetation is usually very small, from few mm to few cm. The requirements for nutrition are very low, with very small roots, and adaptations on the surface to prevent water evaporation and freezing. Such plants are:

  • mosses
  • lichens
  • dwarf shrubs
  • sedges
  • grasses
