As an ammonia molecule, I begin in the blood stream. I pass through the heart and down the aortic trunk to the renal artery and into the kidney. Once there, I begin in the renal cortex where I find a renal corpuscle. I am absorbed by the renal corpuscle by specific gravity and descend around the nephron loop. I ascend the other side and am sent to a collecting duct. This collecting duct takes me to a papillary duct and into one of the minor calyces. This minor calyx feeds me into a major calyx, along the renal pelvis where I combine with other compounds, such as water, ions, acids, drugs, and toxins to form urea. We are sent through the hilum and down into the ureter. The ureter takes us to the bladder where we wait for urination. As we exit the bladder and are combined with creatinine and uric acid, we become collectively known as urine and are sent down the urethra to exit the body.

Answer:
A rock's exposure to the weathering elements and its surface area can affect its rate of weathering. Rocks that are constantly bombarded by running water, wind, and other erosion agents, will weather more quickly. Rocks that have a large surface area exposed to these agents will also weather more quickly.
Explanation:
Properties of the Parent Rock ;
- The mineralogy and structure of a rock affects it’s susceptibility to weathering.
- Different minerals weather at different rates. Mafic silicates like olivine and pyroxene tend to weather much faster than felsic minerals like quartz and feldspar. Different minerals show different degrees of solubility in water in that some minerals dissolve much more readily than others. Water dissolves calcite more readily than it does feldspar, so calcite is considered to be more soluble than feldspar.
-
A rock’s structure also affects its susceptibility to weathering. Massive rocks like granite generally to not contain planes of weakness whereas layered sedimentary rocks have bedding planes that can be easily pulled apart and infiltrated by water. Weathering therefore occurs more slowly in granite than in layered sedimentary rocks.
The is should be C, Im not 100% sure though...
They relate because they both have to do with the behavioral patterns of the cycle of life. essentially they both are related to way things transform into one another
