Answer: A. Earth and the Moon share many compositional characteristics
Explanation:
According to the giant impact theory, the Moon formed when an object of the size of Mars and geologically similar to Earth (which was called Theia by scientifics) crashed into the primitive Earth. With this collision, vaporized pieces of the crust of the young Earth were thrown into space. After this, the expelled particles were united by the action of gravity, creating the Moon.
This theory could explain in a certain way the reason why the Moon is predominantly composed of elements similar to those found on Earth, but lighter, making it less dense than Earth, since the material that formed it came from the crust, leaving the rocky core of the planet intact. This was verified by the samples of rocks brought from the Apollo missions, which indicate that it is composed mostly of the same components of the Earth.
Answer:
P,K,M,S,X,A,R,B,J,F
Explanation:
obviously the oldest are going to be farther to the bottom and the youngest are closer to the top. Layer R goes through layers P,K,M,S,X and then the layers A,B,J,F all layer on top of the intrusion(Layer R).
Answer:
I believe it is C, please correct me if it is incorrect.
Explanation:
Some parts of the route will be mountains, rocky roads, etc. Therefore it will gradually increase.
Answer:
When the magma, a molten rock flows as lava at the planet's surface, the surface gets cooled after a long, this whole process cause formation of some kinds of minerals on that surface.
Explanation:
Magma and Lava both are types of molten rock. The underground molten rock is called magma while the exploded molten rock on surface is known as lava. When these rocks cools down they get solidified and form crystal rock structure. Cooled magma is called plutonic igneous rock and cooled lava is called volcanic igneous rock. These rock crystals are of different sizes and consist several minerals such as Silicon(Si), Sodium (Na), Potassium (K), Aluminium (Al), Iron(Fe), Magnesium(Mg), Calcium(Ca). Some rocks that forms minerals consist high amount of iron. The amount of minerals and elements in every rock can very depending on shape and size.
Answer:
Mercator projection is a map projection that was introduced by Gerardus Mercator in 1569. This projection is most widely used in maps.
