Answer:
A rock's exposure to the weathering elements and its surface area can affect its rate of weathering. Rocks that are constantly bombarded by running water, wind, and other erosion agents, will weather more quickly. Rocks that have a large surface area exposed to these agents will also weather more quickly.
Explanation:
Properties of the Parent Rock ;
- The mineralogy and structure of a rock affects it’s susceptibility to weathering.
- Different minerals weather at different rates. Mafic silicates like olivine and pyroxene tend to weather much faster than felsic minerals like quartz and feldspar. Different minerals show different degrees of solubility in water in that some minerals dissolve much more readily than others. Water dissolves calcite more readily than it does feldspar, so calcite is considered to be more soluble than feldspar.
-
A rock’s structure also affects its susceptibility to weathering. Massive rocks like granite generally to not contain planes of weakness whereas layered sedimentary rocks have bedding planes that can be easily pulled apart and infiltrated by water. Weathering therefore occurs more slowly in granite than in layered sedimentary rocks.
I think the answer is the Endoplasmic Reticulum
The five main characteristics are foot region, hard exoskeleton, bilateral symmetry, left and right limbs and a segmented body.
Your answer is (B.)
Fossils in newer layers if rock are generally estimated to be younger than fossils found in the deeper layers because it is closest to the surface. The soil and earth didn't have enough time to "bury" the remains of the dead animal ( Bury is used for a simpler term) underground. The farther down a fossil is the more likely it is older unless the animal tends to burrow. Seeing as the question is probably talking of older animals that is unlikely for an animal to burrow that far. So your answer is B.
Answer:
100%
Explanation:
Yellow flower color (Y) is dominant over white flower color (y). Plant A is YY while plant B is yy:
YY x yy
Yy Yy Yy Yy
All the offspring would have Yy genotype and since Y is dominant over y, all of them will have yellow flower color as opposed to while.
<em>Hence, the percentage of the offspring that will have a yellow flower would be </em><em>100%.</em>
