One way is that Igneous rock could erode and become sediment and deposited and slowly change into sedimentary rock, then get pushed down deep into the crust and changed by heat and pressure into metamorphic rock.

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

c. Magma composition and cooling rate.

Explanation:

A rock cycle can be defined as a concept used to describe the continuous process that leads to a rock's creation, formation, transformation from one form to another, destruction and reformation over a specific period of time. The natural phenomenons that influences the rock cycle are weathering, plate tectonic activity, erosion, etc.

Basically, the three (3) main types of rocks are; metamorphic rock, sedimentary rock and igneous rock.

All igneous rocks are produced from magma (lava) and formed at the Earth’s surface, thereby, causing them to have a coarse texture and dark colors.

Generally, the cooling and solidification of magma (lava) leads to the formation of an igneous rock, either when the melted rock is still inside the continental crust of the Earth or at volcanoes on the Earth's surface.

Hence, magma composition and cooling rate determines the type of igneous rock that forms from magma. Some examples of an igneous rock are granite, obsidian, tuff, basalt, rhyolite, andesite, pegmatite, dacite, scoria, pumice, etc.

Luda [366]

Answer:

1. sympathetic

2. parasympathetic

Explanation:

The sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system triggers the release of stress hormones from adrenal medulla under emergency conditions. There is a series of physiological responses such as increased heart and breathing rate, an increased flow of blood to skeletal muscles, dilation of pupils, etc. These events helped Nasim to fight the stress conditions.  

Once she was relieved, the parasympathetic system is activated that shut down the physiological responses generated by sympathetic division. It slows down the breathing and heart rate and triggers the digestion and absorption of nutrients to restore the energy level of cells.

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

Jean-Baptiste Lamarck  

Explanation:

Jean-Baptiste Lamarck was a French biologist which developed the first theory to understand how species change (evolve) over time. This evolutionary concept was published under the name of 'Theory of the Transmutation of Species' in the early 19th century. Subsequently, Darwin published his famous and widely accepted evolutionary theory in the book 'On the Origin of Species' (1859).
