Is a column similar to a stalactite and stalagmite

English
1 answer:
Aloiza [94]3 years ago
8 0

I guess a stalactite and a stalagmite could be referenced to a column. Although, only some could be considered column-like.

Stalactites hang from the ceiling and only on occasion do they ever reach the ground. I, myself have toured some caves and have witnessed stalactites reaching the ground, so in that way they could be referenced to a column. But the majority of them, that don't reach the ground, aren't very column-like.

Same goes with stalagmites, but these protrude from the ground, rather than hanging from the ceiling. I've never personally seen a stalagmite that has reached the ceiling of a cave and resembled a column. But I wouldn't doubt that there are a few out there.

So basically in conclusion, the majority of stalagmites and stalactites are not  similar to columns. But the few that can go to cave floor to ceiling can resemble a column.

Hope this helps! Stay safe and stay healty! :3

Write a letter to the editor of The times of india regarding the frequent breakdown of electricity in your area.
Andrews [41]
To,

The Editor,
The Times of India,
Agra


Sir,

Through the pages of your very important paper. In our neighborhood, there are a lot of power outages. Residents in this area have told the Electricity Department about this, but there has been no change.

The area's people are greatly inconvenienced by the regular breakdowns. The pupils are in a lot of difficulties since they are studying for board exams. Because of the breakdown, darkness dominates all around at night, and robbers become more active during complete darkness.

Please publish my letter in your renowned paper so the authorities are aware of our plight and take appropriate action.

Thank you

Sincerely,
XYZ
