Olivia listed possible processes and materials that form sedimentary rock

Biology
1 answer:
statuscvo [17]3 years ago
4 0

Olivia should remove 4 and 5 from the list since they are not the part of process and materials that are involved  in the formation of sedimentary rocks.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Sedimentary rocks can also be called as derived rocks as their formation is from the pieces of pre-existing rocks. They are the formed by the process of weathering of preexisting rocks, transportation of the weathering products, deposition of the material that is  followed by the process of compaction, and cementation of the sediment that will result in the formation of rock. The last two process can be termed as lithification.

When rocks are nearer to the earth's they are supposed to undergo the process called weathering.

Sediments are those that are deposited layer by layer. They get deposited horizontally. Using compaction process we can reduce the pore space and expel the water contained in the pores.

Hence, Olivia needs to remove the option 4. Foliation and 5. Magma that are not the part of process and materials that are involved  in the formation of sedimentary rocks.

Describe the procedure of water reaching the leaves from the roots of a plant
Lisa [10]
The water enters the xylem first by osmosis. Water moves from the soil to the root hair cell down a water potential gradient, and to the root cortex cell from a higher water potential to a lower water potential, this process will be repeated until water enters xylem. Because transpiration is occurring in the leaf, water is lost so there is a lower water potential inside the leaf. Osmosis moves water from the xylem to the leaf because the xylem has a higher water potential. Water moves from the xylem to the cells of the leaf. This pulls water up the xylem via cohesion which is the process of water molecules attracting each other and sticking together. Water does not fall down the xylem as here is adhesion which is the process of water molecules sticking to the inside of the xylem.
