Answer: Option (2)

Explanation: Density refers to the mass of any substance per unit volume and its unit is gram/cm³ . Whereas, the ratio between material's density to the water density is generally termed as specific gravity. It has no unit.

The value of density and specific gravity is almost equal as the density of water is taken to be 1 gram/cm³.

In the given condition, basalt has a density greater than granite, so from the above mentioned relation between density and specific gravity of any substance, we can consider that specific gravity of basalt is greater than granite.

Thus, the correct answer is option (2).

why are less massive stars thought to age more slowly than more massive stars, even though less massive stars have much less fue

kaheart [24]

It is believed that a less massive star will age more slowly than a more massive star, despite the fact that massive stars have much more fuel. The reason that a more massive star will burn out quicker is because it takes a significant more amount of energy to keep the star burning due to the increased diameter of the star compared to the less massive star. A less massive star will use its fuel less quickly due to being smaller and having less mass to fuel.

The massive star burns its fuel at a greater rate than the less massive star.

natali 33 [55]

Water molds are the protists which get nutrients mainly by absorbing molecules from other organisms through their cell walls and cell membranes.
These organisms are absorptive in nature and they obtain nutrition either through dead and decaying matter or by living off as parasites on other organisms such as plants and fishes.
These organisms have filamentous growth because of which they were thought to be fungi however their cell wall is made up of the cellulose and, not chitin and thus they can be differentiated from fungus.

BaLLatris [955]

Foods that contain more than one type of molecule help us meet our daily requirement of nutrients. There is a limit to how much we can eat in a day, so if nutrient rich foods are consumed, we can easily provide the necessary building blocks for our bodies to maintain healthy function. This is not possible with foods that contain only one type of molecule.
