Answer:

D. contact metamorphism

Explanation:

When there's a volcanic activity in certain area, very often it happens that there's magma that intrudes into the cold rock in the surrounding area. The intrusion of the hot magma into the cold rock layers causes big changes into the structure of the rocks. The high temperature and high pressure manage to influence the structure of the preexisting rocks, mostly on the places where the magma touches the cold rocks, leading to the formation of metamorphic rocks. This type of metamorphism is known as contact metamorphism.

What are the cells in animals that are used to destroy bacteria and viruses after combining with lysosomes
AVprozaik [17]

T killer cell or Cytotoxic T cells  are the cells in animals that are used to destroy bacteria and viruses after combining with lysosomes.

<u>Explanation</u>:        

The T cells kills the bacteria and virus. The T cells can easily identify the pathogen when combined with the lysosomes. The activated T cells releases a material called perforin. This substance gets into the walls of the affected cell and punctures its walls. Due to hole in the walls, there happens discharge of fluid and electrolytes, which leads to the death of the cell.  The substance secreted is the cytolytic proteins from the lysosome which helps in destruction of the infected cells.
