Answer:

The intermediate magma has a heterogeneous structure, since it has a part of Silice, approximately 50-60% to be more exact.

When it turns into lava, it produces rocks like the Andesite and, in the opposite case of its crystallization, it forms rocks like the Diorite.

A comparison of felsic magma is much more viscous.

It is important to clarify that this magma is a type of primary magma, that is to say that they are magmas formed from the fusion of the rocks of the mantle or the crust.

Explanation:

The fusion of these rocks are what would give rise to the intermediate magma, this intermediate magma is a primary magma, like the mafic and felsic.

The primary magmas unlike the derived magmas is the origin or the reason for how they are formed, which is what we write above, derived magmas usually form differently since they are the product of the evolution or changes that magmas undergo primary

The term​ blanching, used to describe localized cold​ injury, means the tissue has turned to which of the following​ colors?
I am Lyosha [343]

The correct answer is B. White or lighter.

Explanation

Blanching occurs as tissue turns white or has a lighter color as a result of inappropriate blood flow. One of the main causes of blanching is lesions produced by cold as low temperatures produce reduced blood flue and therefore, this lesion produces blanching. This has symptoms such as tingling sensation, numbness, and even issues to move the limb or part of the body that has been exposed to cold. Additionally, this lesion should be treated by using external heating; although, in severe cases, the tissue might be irreversibly affected. So, the correct answer is B. White or lighter
