Answer:

D. Crystallization

Explanation:

Let's clarify the irrelevant terms first.

  1. unification: This term has nothing to do with chemistry at all
  2. lithification: When the problem mentions magma and lava, you might think that this term is related to the process here. However, 'lithification' <em>do </em>have a precise meaning in geology. It refers to the process where sediments collapses into one single rock under pressure, which has nothing to do with the process mentioned here.

Now, for 2 terms that might confuse you: 'solidification' and 'crystallization' these also has precise scientific definition

Solidification is defined the process where substances in <em>liquid</em> phase changes its phase to <em>solid</em>. On first glance, this answer might seems correct, and yes, it is correct for this question. But not the <em>most</em> correct.

The keyword here is  

 'the internal components will arrange its self in an  organized pattern.'

Crystallization is a special case of Solidification where the atoms or molecules of liquid solidify by spontaneously arrange themselves in periodic, ordered, and organized pattern. It might or might not happen during solidification depending on cooling rate, viscosity of liquid, and other factors.

So, Crystallization is the most correct answer here.

He had earned the enmity of the local populace by enforcing the restrictive Navigation Acts.

He had infuriated Puritans in Boston by promoting the Church of England, which was rejected by many Nonconformist New England colonists.

When news of the overthrow of James II (1688) reached Boston, the colonists revolted, deposing Andros and imprisoning him.

His requirement that landholders take out new land patents and his limitations upon town meetings and rights of local taxation all aroused sharp resentment in colonial America.

Provide an example of a Food Chain.
VikaD [51]

Answer: Diamond is the name ^-^

A food chain only follows just one path as animals find food. eg: A hawk eats a snake, which has eaten a frog, which has eaten a grasshopper, which has eaten grass. A food web shows the many different paths plants and animals are connected. eg: A hawk might also eat a mouse, a squirrel, a frog or some other animal.
