Ferromagnesian minerals are minerals that have iron or magnesium in their structure. The greater specific gravity is between 3.2 and 3.6. Some examples are pyroxene, biotite, garnet, and olvine.

Most mafic minerals are dark in color, and common rock-forming mafic minerals include olivine, pyroxene, amphibole, and biotite. Common mafic rocks include basalt, diabase and gabbro. Mafic rocks often also contain calcium-rich varieties of plagioclase feldspar.

Sustancia formada por ADN y proteínas histonas que integra los cromosomas
Sauron [17]

Answer:

La cromatina

Explanation:

La cromatina es una sustancia dentro de un cromosoma que consta de ADN y proteína. El ADN lleva las instrucciones genéticas de la célula. Las principales proteínas de la cromatina son las histonas, que ayudan a empaquetar el ADN en una forma compacta que encaja en el núcleo celular.

La cromatina es un complejo altamente organizado de ADN y proteínas y es un componente principal del núcleo celular. Las proteínas histonas ayudan a organizar el ADN en unidades estructurales llamadas nucleosomas, que luego se ensamblan en una estructura compacta (cromatina) y, finalmente, en estructuras muy grandes de orden superior (cromosomas).

Jamal was cutting the grass and started to sneeze because of the pollen. Which type of medication should he take? antihistamines
drek231 [11]

The correct answer is option A

A person that is having an allergy with pollen grains should take antihistamines.

When there is an allergic reaction in the body then the body releases histamines which evokes immune response.

As a result of this the person starts sneezing, runny nose, hives et cetera.

So, one should take antihistamines to prevent the action of histamines on the body.
