Answer:

Metamorphic rock

Explanation:

Igneous rocks are the rocks that are formed due to the crystallization of magma at or below the earth's surface. The size of the crystals in these rocks is directly dependent on the rate of cooling. These igneous rocks contain magma with either a high amount of silica or a lesser amount of silica. For example, Granite, Rhyolite, Syenite.

These igneous rocks when subjected to the extremely high pressure and temperature condition, then it turns into a metamorphic rock. These are marked by the higher grade of metamorphism. They are commonly found on the earth at certain depths.  

In general, metamorphic rocks are the secondary rocks that are directly derived from the pre-existing sedimentary, metamorphic or igneous rocks. For example, Schist, Gneiss, Quartzite.

Hence, an igneous rock can change into a metamorphic rock due to the increasing temperature and pressure condition.

During seed production, which part of a flowering plant develops into a seed?
tester [92]


The part of a flowering plant that develops into a seed  is the ovule.

When pollen grains land on the stigma of the correct species, they germinate. A pollen tube grows through the tissues of the flower until it reaches an ovule inside the ovary.

The nucleus of the pollen grain (male gamete) then passes along the pollen tube and joins with the nucleus of the ovule (the female gamete). This process is called fertilization.

After fertilization, the female parts of the flower develop into a fruit. The ovules become seeds and the ovary wall becomes the rest of the fruit.

In corn plants, plant height is controlled by one gene with two alleles how many alleles that control the trait for height are p
Vesna [10]
Answer: 2 alleles

The number of the allele that a gene contains could be various. The allele will determine the phenotype of the organism, so more allele means more possible combination. There is only 1 gene that control the corn height and that gene only has two alleles. So, the total allele that controls the corn height should be: 1 gene * 2 alleles/gene= 2 alleles
