The correct answers are:

- luster;

- streak;

The minerals can be classified by their unique physical properties, at least in most cases, with the luster, streak, hardness, specific gravity, color, tenacity, cleavage, and fracture, being used for identification.

The luster essentially is the how the mineral reflects the light, with the terms metallic and non-metallic being used usually, while for the few minerals that do not reflect the light are used terms such as ''dull'' or ''earthy'' minerals.

The streak is the color of the powdered mineral. In most cases this a more precis method than using the color of the whole mineral piece itself.

Which is a mark of a galaxy formed by collapse?
postnew [5]

<u>Answer:</u>

Same age stars is a mark of a galaxy formed by collapse.

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • Before a galaxy is formed, the building material of the galaxy in a protogalactic cloud that is rotating at a great speed rapidly accumulates and collapses in itself owing to its own gravitational pull.
  • With this collapse, globular clusters are formed away from the nucleus of the galaxy.
  • These clusters give birth to halo stars more or less at the same time. Thus, the stars that are formed of the same age.
  • Sometimes, the reference of the age of the stars is taken to determine the age of the entire galaxy.
