The correct answer is option (d)- metamorphic rocks.

The metamorphic rocks are the rocks formed by the existing rock types by the process of metamorphism. The sedimentary, igneous or other metamorphic rocks can undergo transformation due to the effect of the heat and pressure.

Hence, the sandstone and the basalt under constant heat and pressure, result in the formation of the metamorphic rocks.

Brrunno [24]
Answer is: platelet plug
 
When platelets stick to each other and to the blood vessel they form a plug in the hole of the vessel. This process is called platelet aggregation.

Before the plug forms,  a platelet will stick to the blood vessel (adhesion), change its shape and signal other platelets to come help (activation and secretion). Then they stick to each other (aggregation).

The Oregon forest uses clearcutting to supply us with timber, a renewable resource we use to make lumber and paper. There are ma
Elis [28]

A con that is that eventually all of the forest will be destroyed.

Explanation:

The clearcutting method is a method that is often used around the world, so it is no wonder that this happens in Oregon as well. While the clearcutting manages to supply the market and even create surplus with timber and later its products, it also has several negatives about it. One major con about the clearcutting is that eventually all of the forest will be destroyed.

Because this method is based on mass cutting down of wood and not using any sustainable means, such as planting saplings on the places that were cut and cleared, it has terrible effects on the long run. Bit by bit, the forest will be cut in total, and because it was not renewed in meantime, the only thing that will be left behind will be barren and heavily eroded land.

This will cause big problem for the timber industry as they will have nothing to work with. The prices of the timber products will skyrocket because of this. The ecosystem will be totally destroyed. The land won't be used for agriculture because the soil is of poor quality and because of high rates of erosion.
