Answer:

All of these are correct

Explanation:

According to the question, marble is a rock formed from limestone, which in turn is also formed from Calcite. This shows that marble is a kind of metamorphic rock because a metamorphic rock is any rock that is formed by the alteration of other rocks caused by heat, pressure or chemicals etc. These changes that occurs in the previously existing rocks are called METAMORPHOSIS.

Hence, since marble is formed from limestone, it concludes that marble is a metamorphosed rock formed from a previously existing limestone rock. Also, since Calcite, a precursor of limestone that marble is formed from can be degraded by acids, both limestone and marble which are formed from it will also be dissolvable by acids.

What purpose does a fish ladder serve?
Whitepunk [10]

<u>Answer</u>: Option A

<u>Explanation</u> :

  • A<em> fish ladder</em> is also known as fish steps, fish pass or fishway.
  • It is built around waterfalls, dams and locks.
  • The purpose of building a fish ladder is to<em> facilitate the natural migration of diadromous fishes.</em>
  • A fish ladder helps the fish to pass through the barriers by leaping up or swimming through the low steps of the ladder and reach into the water on the other side.
  • Since, without the fish ladder the barriers will not allow the migration of fishes, it is essential to be built around the dams, waterfalls and locks.

At what phase of meiosis is the number of chromosomes per cell doubled? What happens after that so that the number of chromosome
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

During the S phase at interphase in meiosis I

Explanation:

During the S (DNA synthesis) phase at interphase in meiosis I, DNA replication occurs here where the chromosomes are doubled. This phase does not occur in meiosis II. At the end of meiosis II, the chromosome number becomes halved in the sex cells. The cell just goes on to divide to ensure haploidy of chromosomes in the gametes such that the sperm from the male and egg from female are both haploid. Fertilization brings about diploidy of the zygote itself
