Answer: fracture

Explanation:

Minerals are formed by crystallization from magmatic liquids or thermal solutions, by solid-state recrystallization and further, as the product of chemical reactions between solids and liquids. Fracture: When minerals do not break flat but according to an uneven surface. The types of fracture can be classified into:

• Conchoidal: when the mineral breaks, leaving curved marks similar to the growth lines of shells. Ex: quartz.

• Irregular: When the mineral breaks randomly, forming rough and uneven surfaces. Ex: tourmaline.

• Fibrous: when the mineral breaks down in the form of fibers. Ex: chrysotile.

• Serrated: when the mineral breaks up according to a jagged surface with sharp edges. Ex: gold.

Leviafan [203]

If a phospholipid is located in the outer layer of the bilayer in a vesicle, it will end up in the cytosolic face of the bilayer when the vesicle fuses with the plasma membrane.

The lipids on the exterior of a vesicle will end up in the phospholipid layer on the interior (cytosolic face) of the plasma membrane when it fuses with the membrane. The extracellular fluid in the plasma membrane will be in contact with the lipids on the interior of the vesicle membrane.

What is a phospholipid?

Phospholipids are a subclass of lipids that have two hydrophobic "tails" made of fatty acids connected by an alcohol residue. Their hydrophilic "head" contains a phosphate group (usually a glycerol molecule).

Harman [31]

Answer:

 The Geographic barrier would have led to speciation in the finches which started from the founder effect where the finches were brought to other areas of the Galapagos. They were separated geographically so they could not mate with each other. Over time, evolution occurs through natural selection and genetic drift. This leads to the population being so different so they have reproductive barriers and can no longer interbreed. They become different species.

Explanation:

Hope this helps you understand better.
