1-A mineral is a naturally occurring inorganic element or compound having an orderly internal structure and characteristic chemical composition, crystal form, and physical properties. ... A rock is an aggregate of one or more minerals, or a body of undifferentiated mineral matter.

2-Part of Hall of Planet Earth. There are three kinds of rock: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic.

3-Intrusive rocks are formed from magma that cools and solidifies within the crust of the planet. When lava comes out of a volcano and solidifies into extrusive igneous rock, also called volcanic, the rock cools very quickly.

4-Igneous rocks are formed from lava or magma. Magma is molten rock that is underground and lava is molten rock that erupts out on the surface. The two main types of igneous rocks are plutonic rocks and volcanic rocks. Plutonic rocks are formed when magma cools and solidifies underground.

A rat population has an average weight gain between weeks 2 and 4 of 10 grams, and the narrow-sense heritability of the weight g
madam [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 11.25

Explanation:

Given:

Average weight gain between weeks 2 and 4 = 10 grams

The narrow-sense heritability of the weight gain between 2 and 4 weeks

= 25%

Then

Average weight gain would be expected among the offspring of parents whose average gain was 15 grams-

by the formula:

Average weight gain between weeks + (h) (Average weight gain between weeks - parents average gain )

= 10 + 0.25 (15-10)

 = 10 + 0.25 (5)

= 10 + 1.25

  = 11.25

Thus, the correct answer is - 11.25
