Explanation:
Serpentine
- Formation: it forms through serpentinization, a geological low-temperature metamorphic process where low-silica mafic and ultramafic rocks are oxidized and hydrolyzed with water into serpentinite.
- Characteristics: rich in magnesium and water, light to dark green, greasy-looking and slippery feeling. It can resist the transfer of heat. A source of asbestos, architectural stone, ornamental stone, gem material
- Minerals present: it follows the formula (X)2-3(Y)2O5(OH)4 where X can be magnesium, iron, nickel, aluminum, zinc, or manganese; and, Y will be silicon, aluminum, or iron.
Green Schist
- Formation: they form by regional metamorphism of mafic igneous rocks through depth of burial, and proximity to batholiths.
- Characteristics: The green is due to abundant green chlorite
- Minerals present: actinolite and epidote mainly, but they can also include quartz, orthoclase, talc, carbonate minerals, and amphibole.
Basalt Pillow
- Formation: it forms when lava of basaltic compositions erupted underwater. The rapid cooling of the lava forms the pillow-shaped bodies.
- Characteristics: they are volcanic igneous rocks, very dark, almost black color.
- Minerals present: Basalt has a lower percentage of silica and a higher percentage of iron and magnesium than other volcanic rocks.
Umber
- Formation: it develops in Cyprus massive sulfide deposits.
- Characteristics: is not one precise color, but a range of different colors, from medium to dark, from yellowish to reddish to grayish depending on the iron oxide and manganese in the clay
- Minerals present: contains iron oxide and manganese oxide and sulfide precipitates like pyrite.

Explosions from composite volcanoes occur as a result of gas buildup within them. Shield volcanoes also may erupt explosively if water accumulates inside their vents.
The opinion may varies on this question, here are my point of views.
The correct answer would be:
A) spread of innovations
B) cultural blending
C) damage to some cultures
Let's look into them one by one:
A) spread of innovations
- As the technological skills on different areas spread to different countries, people are able to learn and create based on the new knowledge hence enhancing innovations across the world.
(- However,some might held a different opinion as the innovations are concentrated in powerful nations but not the third world countriedls. But what I believe is that under the spread of information, third world countries have chances for innovations as well therefore supporting this claim.)
B) cultural blending
- Under globalization, it is easier for people to travel around the world, bring their own culture and influence to a foreign place, resulting in the blend of culture. For example, you can see many international brands across the globe even in Asia, while you can find China town and production of Asia in places like Europe and America.
C) damage to some cultures
- This is also true. As globalization prevails, some cultures are considered less important as the living mode of people has changed. Languages for example, inder the influence of international language such as English, some minorities dialect are disappearing or the use is decreasing rapidly.
D) increase in death rate
- This is very unlikely to happen. As globalization brings the technology around, the medical advancements are also able to be brought to different place. For instance, the use of xray, or even cancer treatment, are spreaded. This has undoubtedly helped expanding the life span of people.
Therefore the correct answer would be:
A) spread of innovations
B) cultural blending
C) damage to some cultures
Hope it helps!
Answer:
you didnt put the choices but a possible answer could be canada or Australia or something like that idk
Answer:
C. It transports heat from the North Atlantic to the Indian Ocean.
Explanation:
The Antarctic Circumpolar Current is a massive oceanic current that circles around the Antarctic continent, that plays many roles.
One of the roles it plays is to connect all three major oceans (Atlantic, Pacific and Indian) together, and acts as a transportation system between them transferring heat, salt and other elements.
That role is vital in the global ocean thermo-regulation system of the planet.
