Answer: Basalt

Explanation:

Basalt is a dark igneous rock that usually forms from lava flow. It is the most common rock at the bottom of the Earth's oceans where it underlines most basins which means that it, by extension, is the largest type of rock underlying the Earth's surface.

Basalt is phaneritic-rock as it forms from lava that has crystallized on or close to the Earth's surface and is made up of about 30% calcium-rich plagioclase feldspar, about  55% pyroxene, and about 15% olivine.

Which term best describes the systems in an animal's body?
umka21 [38]

Answer:

B. interconnected

Explanation:

All the systems in our bodies (humans are indeed animals) are connected with each other to create a functional being. The blood flows throughout the body, providing nutrients; the bones support the structure and protect the heart and lungs. They work together.

Why not A: The systems are all completely necessary. There's nothing extraneous in our bodies, because extraneous stuff takes up energy, and our biology is incredibly economical.

Why not B: They're not interchangeable. How would you like your bones to turn to blood? Uh-huh.

Why not D: They interact with each other consistently, so they're not separate or segregated.

Compares and contrasts the structure and function of viruses with all living cells.,
liq [111]
<span>The major difference between viruses and living cells is that viruses do not have nuclei while living cells do. A second major difference is that viruses need a host cell to survive while living cells do not. For the most part, viruses just contain genetic material (typically in the form of RNA) inside of a capsid. Living cells have many more organelles, including ribosomes and cytoplasm, which viruses lack.</span>

Which of the following adaptations would you expect to find in an animal in the taiga biome, but not in the alpine? a. hibernati
Lostsunrise [7]

The correct answer is - d. large paws.

The animals in the taiga biome have special adaptations in order to be able to live in this cruel environment, and of their trademarks are the large paws. Because for most of the year the taiga is covered with ice and snow, the animals developed large paws so that the pressure from their body weight can be more evenly distributed so that they can move freely through the snow and sink their legs deep into it. Also, the size of the paws enables for more hair to grow between their toes, as well as to develop an extra layer, and that is with the purpose of avoiding the freezing of their legs.
