Since 1790, the center of population has moved steadily westward, angling to the southwest in recent decades.

NOTE: The Proclamation Line of 1763 limited British settlement to areas east of the Appalachian Mountains. Alaska and Hawaii were not included in the calculation of the mean center of population until 1950. Puerto Rico was not included in any decade.

Answer: The correct answer is : (2) all inorganic rocks except igneous rocks are formed from other rocks
Explanation: Igneous rocks are formed by the solidification of magma, the process is slow if it is in the crust and fast if it is on the surface.
Sedimentary rocks are formed on the surface of the earth by processes of erosion and alteration of pre-existing rocks.
Metamorphic rocks have been formed by the evolution of another previous rock due to the environment to which it is subjected that may be hotter, colder or of a different pressure.
