Its like a line in the middle of therth
Explanation:
Serpentine
- Formation: it forms through serpentinization, a geological low-temperature metamorphic process where low-silica mafic and ultramafic rocks are oxidized and hydrolyzed with water into serpentinite.
- Characteristics: rich in magnesium and water, light to dark green, greasy-looking and slippery feeling. It can resist the transfer of heat. A source of asbestos, architectural stone, ornamental stone, gem material
- Minerals present: it follows the formula (X)2-3(Y)2O5(OH)4 where X can be magnesium, iron, nickel, aluminum, zinc, or manganese; and, Y will be silicon, aluminum, or iron.
Green Schist
- Formation: they form by regional metamorphism of mafic igneous rocks through depth of burial, and proximity to batholiths.
- Characteristics: The green is due to abundant green chlorite
- Minerals present: actinolite and epidote mainly, but they can also include quartz, orthoclase, talc, carbonate minerals, and amphibole.
Basalt Pillow
- Formation: it forms when lava of basaltic compositions erupted underwater. The rapid cooling of the lava forms the pillow-shaped bodies.
- Characteristics: they are volcanic igneous rocks, very dark, almost black color.
- Minerals present: Basalt has a lower percentage of silica and a higher percentage of iron and magnesium than other volcanic rocks.
Umber
- Formation: it develops in Cyprus massive sulfide deposits.
- Characteristics: is not one precise color, but a range of different colors, from medium to dark, from yellowish to reddish to grayish depending on the iron oxide and manganese in the clay
- Minerals present: contains iron oxide and manganese oxide and sulfide precipitates like pyrite.
I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
Precise knowledge of location, estimates of size, and general sense of connection between places.
They are the maps in our head, so when you think of a neighborhood or states, you can think of where they are positioned and how to get there
they help navigate areas like the kitchen, states, towns, countries and so on
Answer:
Hi,
The correct answer option is a. deep sea corals
Explanation:
Deep sea corals are organism that habit the deeper and dark parts of the ocean and survive by feeding on tiny organisms washed by currents to obtain nutrients and energy.A major characteristics of these organisms is that they grow very slowly. Fishing practices such as dragging the sea floor with heavy fishing equipment and machines can destroy the homes of these organisms (coral gardens) thus affecting even the other organisms that live among them.
Best of Luck!
