Cell Y.

Answer: Option C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Prokaryotic cells are the cells that do not possess a true nucleus. They do not even possess a membrane bound organelles. Organisms with in the domains bacteria and Archaea have prokaryotic cells. The other forms of life are the eukaryotic.

It is a unicellular organism. The word prokaryotic comes from a Greek word. The prokaryotic cells have a cell membrane or a plasma membrane which acts like a protective shield. Along with this, they also have a rigid cell wall which acts like further support and protection.

What determines the type of igneous rock that forms from magma? a. The heat and pressure the magma is exposed to b. Whether the
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

c. Magma composition and cooling rate.

Explanation:

A rock cycle can be defined as a concept used to describe the continuous process that leads to a rock's creation, formation, transformation from one form to another, destruction and reformation over a specific period of time. The natural phenomenons that influences the rock cycle are weathering, plate tectonic activity, erosion, etc.

Basically, the three (3) main types of rocks are; metamorphic rock, sedimentary rock and igneous rock.

All igneous rocks are produced from magma (lava) and formed at the Earth’s surface, thereby, causing them to have a coarse texture and dark colors.

Generally, the cooling and solidification of magma (lava) leads to the formation of an igneous rock, either when the melted rock is still inside the continental crust of the Earth or at volcanoes on the Earth's surface.

Hence, magma composition and cooling rate determines the type of igneous rock that forms from magma. Some examples of an igneous rock are granite, obsidian, tuff, basalt, rhyolite, andesite, pegmatite, dacite, scoria, pumice, etc.

True or false: The energy contained in the food we eat directly powers all of our cellular activities. If false, please make it
Gwar [14]

Answer:

False

"The energy contained in the food we eat is used to synthesize the energy that directly powers all of our cellular activities".

Explanation:

The food we eat undoubtedly contains energy. This energy is stored in the bonds of the molecules that make up the food. However, the food undergoes the process of digestion to yield glucose (a sugar). This glucose sugar is used in the process of CELLULAR RESPIRATION to synthesize a form of chemical energy usable by cells called ATP.

ATP or Adenosine triphosphate is a molecule that stores chemical energy in living cells. It is the molecule that directly powers all of our cellular activities. Hence, the statement in this question is FALSE. The correct statement should be "The energy contained in the food we eat is used to synthesize the energy that directly powers all of our cellular activities".
