Answer:

I will explain.

Explanation:

Lava comes in two primary appearances: Pahoehoe and aa. The reason why they have two different types of appearances is because the older aa in the photo has weathered and the iron in it has oxided somewhat, giving it a reddish and chunky appearance. It also moves fast. Pahoehoe has a flow that is comparatively smooth or a "ropy" surface. Pahoehoe doesn't have the chunky appearance.

Describe what lines of latitude measure and what do lines of longitude measure?​
nadezda [96]

Answer:

Lines of latitude measure north-south position between the poles. Lines of latitude are all parallel to each other, thus they are often referred to as parallels.

Lines of longitude, or meridians, run between the North and South Poles. They measure east-west position. The prime meridian is assigned the value of 0 degrees, and runs through Greenwich, England. Meridians to the west of the prime meridian are measured in degrees west and likewise those to the east of the prime meridian are measured to by their number of degrees east.
