<u>Bioclastic</u> rocks are actually sub-parts of <u>clastic</u> rocks, not a completely different thing altogether.
<u>Clastic</u> rocks are made up of loosened bits of pre-existing rocks. These rocks are formed from weathering, breaking those larger rocks down into little particles (for example, a grain of sand) due to external weather factors such as wind or rain. Some examples of these rocks would be sandstone, conglomerate, and silistone. They are classified by the size and shape of the fragments they are made up of.
<u>Bioclastic</u> rocks are also made up of loosened bits, however, they are not made of rock. They are made of fossils and biogenic (made by living organisms) particles (for example, pieces of shells and coral). These rocks are formed from small parts of pre-existing organisms compacting together to form a rock. Examples of this type of rock would be coquina and limestone, or more specifically, bioclastic limestone. Bioclastic rocks have a very crystalline texture and it is highly likely that you will see a shell in this rock type.
Answer:
Refer to the attached image for correct labeling.
Explanation:
- The diagram is of a plant cell and its organelles.
- The nucleus houses the genetic material and controls all life processes.
- A plant cell contains one large vacuole in the center that stores water and nutrients.
- Chloroplast is the site for photosynthesis. It captures light and utilizes it and carbondioxide to produce glucose.
- Mitochondria are called the power house of the cell. Through a process called cellular respiration, they break down the glucose produced in photosynthesis into energy compounds such as ATP as well as oxygen and water.
- The endoplasmic reticulum is the site for protein sysnthesis. It contains two parts: the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) which contains ribosomes that synthesize proteins and the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) which packages the proteins into transport vesicles.
- The nucleus contains the nucleolus that is the site for ribosome assembly.
- The cell membrane is a semi-permeable membrane that covers the cell and controls cellular transport.
- The cell wall is a hard, outer covering that protects the cell and maintains its structure and shape.
The correct answer is B: The cells will have 2n chromosomes and be diploid.
Diploid cell have two of each chromosome, one from each parent. When diploid cell undergoes mitosis, the result is two identical diploid cells (when haploid cell undergoes mitosis the result is haploid cell). This means that during the mitosis, cells reproduce genetically identical copies of themselves.
Answer:
a. bubbles formed
Explanation:
Bubbles are a sign of gaseous molecules escaping, meaning that something has forced molecules to break apart and escape. A chemical reaction involves any change that directly impacts the molecular formation of a substance.
Answer:
pancreas: secretes digestive enzymes into the small intestine
esophagus: the place where peristalsis takes place
small intestine: area of the digestive tract where most nuturients are absorbed
stomach: area of the digestive tract that follows the esophagus
large intestine: area of the digestive tract where mostly water is absorbed
Explanation:
peristalsis: so the food can move down towards your stomach, independently of gravity
pancreas: helps your stomach become the ultimate weapon to destroy anything that gets in there with its enzymes
small intestine: it is really really long -> more time to absorb nutrients
large intestine: like a farm of bacteria, the most exotic things that somehow made it through all the way here are finally destroyed -> also, water absorbtion: your body wants to retain as much as possible, this is how and where stool formation takes place
