Answer:

Red Blood Cells

Explanation:

Red Blood Cells (also called erythrocytes or RBCs)

Known for their bright red color, red cells are the most abundant cell in the blood, accounting for about 40 to 45 percent of its volume.

Which one is NOT one of the properties of water?

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

a. the frozen form is more dense than the liquid form

Explanation:

The remaining properties are exhibited by water and are described as follows.

b. the frozen form is less dense than the liquid form

1. Water freezes to form ice.

2. When ice is put in water, ice starts floating in water and is visible.

3. If the density of ice was greater than water, ice would have got sunk and go downwards in the water body.

4. Hence, ice which is frozen form of water, has less density than water.

c. water is a solvent

1. The solvency is defined as the ability of a liquid to dissolve a substance.

2. Water is called the universal solvent. This means water can dissolve almost all types of substances.

3. Water is a polar solvent. The polar water molecules have the ability to break down both ionic and covalent bonds.

d. water has a high heat capacity

1. This is defined as the amount of heat needed by 1 gram of a substance so that its temperature is changed by 1 degree centigrade. The heat can either be gained or lost for the temperature to change.

2. The heat required by 1 gram of water to either increase or decrease the temperature of water is called the heat capacity of water.

e. water has a high heat of evaporation

1. This is defined as the amount of heat needed by 1 gram of a substance so that it changes its state from liquid to gas.

2. The heat required to convert 1 gram of water into vapours is called the heat of evaporation of water.

3. 1 g of water when heated at 25 centigrade needs 580 calories of heat to convert into gas.

All the above properties of water show the importance of water for life.

How one rock can be transferred into either of the other rock type

mart [117]

Rocks can be classified in to three main groups - igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic. These three different rock types can be found in distinct areas of the UK.

Igneous rocks - these rocks are a result of volcanic activity in the past, when Britain was close to a plate boundary. Some of the igneous rocks are due to lava erupting at constructive plate boundaries. When the lava reached the surface, it cooled and solidified to form basalt rock. An example of this is the Giant's Causeway in Northern Ireland.

Other rocks are formed by hot molten magma beneath the Earth's surface cooling and solidifying as an intrusive rock under the ground, such as granite. This is later exposed as the rocks above are weathered and eroded at the Earth’s surface.

Sedimentary rocks – these are made up of small particles of sand and rock, which have been transported by the wind, rivers and ice and are usually deposited on lake or seabed. Over many millions of years, successive layers of sediments accumulate. These layers of sediments are compressed by the weight of the deposits above, into sedimentary rocks. These rocks form in layers, known as bedding planes.

When sand is compressed it forms sandstone. When mud is compressed it becomes clay. Limestone and chalk come from the remains of dead plant, animal and marine species and are rich in calcium carbonate and contain fossils. Many of these rocks were formed over 300 million years ago, in warm tropical seas during the carboniferous period. The existence of these rocks is evidence that Britain was at a different latitude compared to today. This suggests movement of continental areas of the globe, which is explained by the modern theory of plate tectonics.

Metamorphic rocks - these are rocks that have been changed in shape and form by intense heat and pressure at a plate boundary or along a fault line. These rocks start as either igneous or sedimentary rocks and are crystallised under the intense heat and pressure conditions to form rocks such as slates, schists, and marble. These rocks are very hard in nature and are often used as roof material.

short answer

The three main rock types are igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary. The three processes that change one rock to another are crystallization, metamorphism, and erosion and sedimentation. Any rock can transform into any other rock by passing through one or more of these processes. This creates the rock cycle.

Which term best describes this collection of locations a forest a freshwater lake an estuary and a prairie

Katyanochek1 [597]

An estuary is partly enclosed coastal body of water with one or more rivers flowing through it, and with a free connection to the open sea. it would be more of a collection. hope this help have a great day.
