Answer:

Sedimentary rock

Explanation:

The Coquina rock is a sedimentary rock that is comprised of broken fragments of the shells of ancient trilobites, invertebrates, and brachiopods. When the sediments were deposited, and shells were also added on it, they have undergone compaction and lithification, as a result of which these rocks were formed. They are generally classified as the soft limestone rocks, that are typically formed in the marine and lacustrine environments, where the flow energy is very high.

Thus, Coquina is a sedimentary limestone rock.

A mutation in a gene for normal production of plant chlorophyll results in a plant without chlorophyll. Explain the consequences
Nezavi [6.7K]
A plant without chlorophyll would not be able to photosynthesise because chlorophyll serves to absorb sunlight, which is used to break apart the bonds in water during photosynthesis. A plant that is unable to photosynthesise is not able to create glucose, hence it would likely die unless it was receiving glucose through another source. This is because the plant relies on the energy it gets from breaking down glucose for important internal functions.

What structural feature in a molecule is necessary for a gas to absorb ir radiation?.
dybincka [34]

The structural feature in a molecule necessary for a gas to absorb IR radiation is: a net change in dipole moment due to the vibration or rotation of the molecule.

IR radiation is the infrared radiation. In the electromagnetic spectrum, its value ranges from  700 nanometers to 1 millimeter. The waves are longer than that of visible light and shorter than the radio waves. The waves are not visible to the human eye.

Dipole moment is a vector quantity. It is equal to the charge of the molecules multiplied by the distance between the two charges. In a dipole there is a positive charge at one end and a negative at the other. The direction is considered from negative to positive.
