Answer:1. Yes, there are magma of different composition in existence. silicate mineral become molten at the same temperature of 1200 degree centigrade in igneous rock formation and this does not stop the composition of magma which are of three types basalic, andesitic and rhyolitic each of them have different composition ranging between iron, magnesium and calcium.

2. Partial melting is the reason why we have different forms of rock, this is because the mantle is composed of different minerals, these minerals doesn't melt uniformly, a mineral with low melting point will turn to liquid while the one with high melting point will turn to solid crystals. As the magma melts and flow slowly before it cools into solid rock it undergoes some physical and chemical changes which causes differences in the rock formed.

3. The last question depends on ever individual's location, where i am i can easily go and see granite at a mining site that deals with construction rocks which is an example of igneous rock.

The mixed economy of Australia is becoming more of a market economy as fewer economic decisions are made by
BaLLatris [955]
Market economies are based on market forces like supply and demand. Mixed economies fall in the middle of market and command economies (where economic choices are governed by some central entity usually the government). The former Soviet Union (USSR) is an example of a command economy where economic choices (what to buy, sell and produce) where made by the government. If Australia is becoming more of a market economy and less of a mixed economy, fewer decisions are made by the government. Here's a diagram of two major types of economies:

Command Economy <-------------- Mixed Economy --------> Market Economy
(Government makes the decisions)      (A little of both)         (Individuals decide)

Identify three major air pollutants and describe their effects on human health and the environment.
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

Listed

Explanation:

The three major air pollutants are Carbon monoxide(CO), Particulate Matter(PM10, and PM2.5) and Ozone(O3).

1.Carbon monoxide is colorless, odourless gas, mainly produced due to incomplete combustion of fossil fuels. CO has a great affinity for blood oxygen carrier, haemoglobin, forming carboxyhemoglobin. This substance is very harmful for humans. It can cause headache, dizziness, weakness, neusea, vomiting, and finally loss of consciousness.

2. Particulate matter(PM) are particles of certain size which when enter our body can cause a lot of damage. PMs are linked with pulmonary and cardiac disease. It initiates a lot of lungs and heart diseases. Depending upon the level of exposure PMs can also cause premature deaths.

3.Ozone is an allotrope of oxygen generally found in upper atmosphere in the stratosphere, protects us from harmful ultra violet rays of the sun. The ground level ozone (GLO) are harmful to human health. Ozone can cause risk of respiratory disease like Asthma.
