Explanation:
Quartzite
Quartzite is a metamorphic rock formed when quartz-rich sandstone or chert has been exposed to high temperatures and pressures. Such conditions fuse the quartz grains together forming a dense, hard, equigranular rock. The name quartzite implies not only a high degree of induration (hardness), but also a high quartz content. Quartzite generally comprises greater than 90% percent quartz, and some examples, containing up to 99% quartz, and are the largest and purest concentrations of silica in the Earth's crust. Although a quartz-rich sandstone can look similar to quartzite, a fresh broken surface of quartzite will show breakage across quartz grains, whereas the sandstone will break around quartz grains. Quartzite also tends to have a sugary appearance and glassy lustre. The variety of colours displayed by quartzite are a consequence of minor amounts of impurities being incorporated with the quartz during metamorphism. Although quartzite can sometimes appear superficially similar to marble, a piece of quartzite will not be able to be scratched by a metal blade, and quartzite will not fizz on contact with dilute hydrochloric acid.
Texture - granular.
Grain size - medium grained; can see interlocking quartz crystals with the naked eye.
Hardness - hard.
Colour - variable - pure quartzite is white but quartzite exists in a wide variety of colours.
Mineralogy - quartz.
Other features - generally gritty to touch.
Uses - pure quartzite is a source of silica for metallurgical purposes, and for the manufacture of brick; as aggregate in the construction and roading industries; as armour rock for sea walls; dimension stone for building facings, paving etc.
New Zealand occurrences - northwest Nelson (Aorere).
Answer: temperature
Explanation:
An abiotic factor is every non-living thing.
Binary fission<span> ("division in half") is a kind of asexual reproduction. It is the most common form of reproduction in prokaryotes and occurs in some single-celled eukaryotes like Amoeba and Paramecium.</span>
Answer:
In eukaryotes, it occurs in the chloroplast. In prokaryotes it does it in the cytoplasm.
Explanation:
Prokaryotes don't have organelles such as the mitochondria and the chloroplast, it just has cell membrane, which its only function is to protect the cell and is unable to generate chemical processes; the DNA, which stores and manages only the genes, which would be affected if exposed to a chemical process like photosynthesis; and the cytoplasm, which stores the materials that the cell needs, where photosynthesis occurs. Eukaryotes have chloroplasts, which absorb the sunlight and combine it with carbon dioxide and water to realize photosynthesis.
True
Mucins exhibit direct microbicidal activities.
