Answer:

The correct answer is option A.) "joints; cooling and contracting during formation".

Explanation:

In Geology, a joint is a break or fracture that is naturally formed within a rock. Joints are formed as a result of cooling and contracting during its formation, or by the addition of layers of minerals during its formation.The rocks will break along their joints when they are hit with hammers because joints are their weak spots.

What is the discharge of water moved by a river that has an area of 750m and is traveling 4 m/s?
olga_2 [115]
The question is simply asking for the volumetric flow rate of the water in the river. It<span> is the volume of fluid which passes per unit time. It has units of m^3 /s. We calculate as follows:

Q = 750 m^2 (4 m/s ) = 3000 m^3/s

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

Which pair of terms concerning the osmotic effect of a solution on red blood cells is mismatched?
QveST [7]
Even though there are no choices given in this particular question, the principle of osmosis is very easy to understand. 

When we talk about osmosis, we are referring to the movement of water from a low concentration to a higher concentration. This is different from diffusion, which talks specifically about the movement of <em>solutes</em> in the solution (from a higher concentration to a lower concentration.)

When an RBC is placed inside a <em>hypertonic </em>solution, the water inside the RBC will go out thereby shrinking the RBC.

Inside an <em>isotonic</em> solution, the RBC will remain the same because the concentrations are equal.

Inside a <em>hypotonic</em> solution, the RBC will lyse or explode because water will move from the solution going inside the RBC.
