Answer: Igneous

Explanation:

The main type of rock found at divergent plate boundaries is igneous. These rocks are formed when magma cools and becomes solid, either above or below ground. They are rich in elements including silicon, aluminium, sodium, potassium, calcium and iron, and make up about 95 percent of the upper part of the Earth's crust. More than 700 types of igneous rock have been identified.

Most rocks formed at divergent boundaries are categorized as malefic igneous rocks, which are dark-coloured due to their high magnesium and iron content. This category includes basalt, gabbro and peridotites, which are often found at these boundaries.

ale4655 [162]
Theres monocotyledons and dicotyledons. (1 and 2 cots)
the answer should be monocotyledons, we can see that through the leaves and the petals. monocotyledons the petals r usually in the multiples of 3 or 6, and 9 petals is the multiple of 3. also, monocots leaves r usually in parallel leaf veins, so your plant is monocotyledons, which means one.

just in addition, dicots petals r in multiples of 4 or 5, and their leaves r usually in branched veins

How do the structures in an organism relate to their functions?
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]


Different structure in an organism  are specialized to perform different tasks in the organism depending on their makeup.  A few examples are:

Heart, veins,  arteries  are structures forming  the cardiovascular system and function is to facilitate transport nutrients and oxygen carried by blood all over the body.

Bones, joints, ligaments and cartilage are structures of the skeletal system and their function is support and protection of the body.

Mouth, esophagus. stomach, large and small intestines are structures of the digestive system and their function is to break down food and absorb nutrients.

Many drugs can be applied to the skin without entering the blood. how is this fact explained?
ra1l [238]

*A drug administered by the cutaneous route can have one of these three actions:

Local action, superficial: ex. local anesthetic ...

Deep action: ex. anti-inflammatory action ...

Systemic or general action: ex. anti-anginal action

*The skin is a very effective barrier, which limits the number of drugs that can enter the system.

*The factor influencing the penetration of the drugs are:

- Nature and physicochemical properties of P.A: Molecular weight, hydrophilicity, lipophilicity, stability ...

- Formulation of the drug: Excipients lipophilic, hydrophilic, amphiphilic, an absorption promoter

- Nature and condition of the skin, Location, age, thickness (1 to 8 mm ...), vascularization...

*To not penetrate the skin, a drug should have to be of high molecular mass (to be unable to penetrate through the skin tissue), hydrophilic (since the skin is of a lipophilic nature).

*For example, solar creams should not enter the system so the excipients used are hydrophilic in nature.
