VARVARA [1.3K]3 years ago

Answer:

Glassy is a term that would suggest that the rock is igneous.

Explanation:

Out of the three terms, ''glassy'' is the one that for sure suggests that the rock would be of igneous type. We can be so sure because glassy rocks occur only among igneous rocks, while they are not present among metamorphic and sedimentary rocks.

The glassy igneous rocks are formed by lava that has cooled off extremely quickly. The cooling has been so rapid that there hasn't been any time for crystals to form. On top of it, the silica content is very high, so the glass-type rocks form, being very smooth and curved, as well as shiny. The most recognizable of the glassy igneous rocks is the obsidian.

Where do the Sun’s rays hit Earth’s surface nearly at right angles?
Usimov [2.4K]
The Sun's rays hit the Earth's surface nearly at right angles at the Earth's equator.
During equinox periods in March and September, the Sun's rays hit the Equator at a perpendicular angle because the Sun is in a position in the sky directly over the Earth's equator. This in turn means that the Sun's rays hit the Earth’s surface nearly at right angles
