The igneous rock gabbro most likely formed

Geography
1 answer:
weeeeeb [17]3 years ago
7 0

Slowly, deep underground

The igneous rock gabbro is coarse grained and non-vesicular. Both characteristics show that it is an intrusive igneous rock. Intrusive igneous rocks are formed below Earth's surface and slowly (because they're underground). When rocks are intrusive, they are are non-vesicular (no air pockets) because the air has had the time to escape because of the slow cooling time period. Intrusive rocks are also coarse because crystals had the time to form in the rock during that longer cooling time.

Ps. extrusive igneous rocks form rapidly at Earth's surface and basically have tge opposite characteristics for the opposite reasons (ex: vesicular cause air had little time to escape)

1. Which statement describes the principles of the Nationalist party?
kaheart [24]

Answer: Nationalist parties propagate ideas that we can sometimes associate with right-wing beliefs.

Explanation:

With the advent of nationalism, which mainly dates back to the nineteenth century, political entities emerged that supported such ideas. Nationalism and nationalist parties are still present worldwide today. The primary purpose of these political options is to propagate the ideas of nationalism, to put the state in the focus of everything, even above the collective and private positions of feelings.

Nationalism, and therefore the parties that have this prefix, identify with chauvinism towards non-affiliates of their nation. We recognize here the fact that the perpetrators of nationalist ideas have too often resorted to building negative stereotypes about other countries to motivate members of their people to gather for protection against the real or imagined danger of aggression of other nations. The propaganda and political platform of such political options can often be radical and dangerous.
