Answer: He found a rock, and the crystals inside are minerals.

Options:

  • He found a rock, and the crystals inside are minerals.
  • He found a mineral, and the crystals inside are rocks.
  • He found a rock, and the crystals inside are rocks, too.
  • He found a mineral, and the crystals inside are made of dirt.

Explanation:

A rock differs from a mineral. While they are both solid, a mineral has a crystalline structure while a rock does not have a specific structure. Rocks are made up of different mineral structures and that is what Joseph discovered on dropping the rock, one of the component minerals in the rock. For example, a type of rock, slate may consist of feldspar, quartz among many other minerals.

Explain the connection between climate change and coastal defences.​
Bingel [31]

Answer:

Climate change threatens coastal areas, which are already stressed by human activity, pollution, invasive species, and storms. Sea level rise could erode and inundate coastal ecosystems and eliminate wetlands. Warmer and more acidic oceans are likely to disrupt coastal and marine ecosystems.
