Answer:

Minerals can form in all geological environments, which allows them to have a wide range of chemical and physical conditions. Two forms of this are temperature and pressure. There are 4 main categories of mineral formations.   Igneous is where the minerals crystalize from a melt. Sedimentary is where the raw materials of the mineral are particles from other rocks that have suffered from erosion and weathering. Metamorphic is where new minerals are created from earlier ones owing to the effects of change. Most of the time it's from increasing temperature and/or pressure. Hydrothermal is where the minerals are chemically precipitated from hot solutions in the earth.

When glucose molecules are broken down, energy is released, and carbon dioxide and water are produced. What is this process call
Tcecarenko [31]
Hi there!

This process is known as cellular respiration. It is essential for all living to survive because it allows aerobic organisms to convert food into energy - without cellular respiration, we would not be able to produce energy, making it impossible to perform bodily functions that are important for life. 

The word equation for cellular respiration is:
Glucose (energy) + Oxygen + Water ⇒ Carbon Dioxide + Water 

The balanced chemical equation for cellular respiration is: C₆H₁₂O₆+6O₂+6H₂O⇒6CO₂+12H₂O

Hope this helps!
