makkiz [27]3 years ago
5 0

The air around you has weight, and it presses against everything it touches. That pressure is called atmospheric pressure, or air pressure. It is the force exerted on a surface by the air above it as gravity pulls it to Earth. Atmospheric pressure is commonly measured with a barometer.

a scientist is comparing samples of intrusive and extrusive igneous rock what is the difference of the two rocks
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Crystal size

Explanation:

The most obvious difference between extrusive rocks and intrusive rocks is crystal size. Because extrusive rocks cool quickly, they only have time to form very small crystals such as basalt or none at all. On the other hand, intrusive rocks grow larger crystals because they take longer to cool.
