Answer: Igneous rocks may be simply classified according to their chemical/mineral composition as felsic, intermediate, mafic, and ultramafic, and by texture or grain size: intrusive rocks are course grained (all crystals are visible to the naked eye) while extrusive rocks may be fine-grained (microscopic crystals) or glass.

Explanation: Hope this helped! :)

If the temperature of gas is held constant describe the relationship between a gas volume of a gas pressure?
love history [14]
This law states that the volume and temperature of a gas have a direct relationship: As temperature increases, volume increases, when pressure is held constant. Heating a gas increases the kinetic energy of the particles, causing the gas to expand.

Compose an essay on hydroelectric power of at least 400 words.
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Hydropower plants get their energy from falling water to generate electricity. A generator then converts the mechanical energy from the turbine into electrical energy. Hydroplants range in size from "micro-hydros" that power only a few homes to giant dams that provide electricity for millions of people. A hydroelectric dam is one of the major components of a hydroelectric facility. A dam is a large, man-made structure built to contain some body of water. In addition to construction for the purpose of producing hydroelectric power, dams are created to control river flow and regulate flooding. Hydropower is fueled by water, so it's a clean fuel source, meaning it won't pollute the air like power plants that burn fossil fuels, such as coal or natural gas. Hydroelectric power is a domestic source of energy, allowing each state to produce their own energy without being reliant on international fuel sources. However, it can also cause environmental and social threats, such as damaged wildlife habitat, harmed water quality, obstructed fish migration, and diminished recreational benefits of rivers.

Tectonic plate movement is responsible for forming which type of rock? Choose all that apply
salantis [7]

Answer:

Regional metamorphism occurs at convergent plate boundaries, due to intense pressure. As two plates collide, the Earth's crust folds and faults. The intense pressure changes large areas of the Earth's crust into metamorphic rock. Mountain ranges are typically metamorphic rock, due to plate tectonic processes.
