Rock B reacts with hydrochloric acid. State the name of the rock B

choli [55]

Answer:

The sedimentary rock limestone which contains carbonate mineral Calcite and the metamorphic rocks which contain carbonate mineral Aragonite are the examples of rocks which react strongly with hydrochloric acid.

Explanation:

Rocks are naturally occurring structures formed on the Earth's crust and are composed of aggregate minerals. Classification of rocks: Igneous rocks - formed by cooling of magma on Earth's crust or seabed (basalts, gabbros, granite, etc), sedimentary rocks - formed over time by the accumulation of sediments from the weathering of existing rocks or fragments of minerals and organisms (mudstone, sandstone, shale, limestone, dolostone, siltstone, etc) and metamorphic rocks - transformed rocks formed from the existing rocks that are subjected to large pressures and temperatures (schists, gneiss, marble, etc).

The carbonate minerals like calcite, dolomite, aragonite, etc react with hydrochloric acid and release carbon dioxide gas bubbles. Calcite (calcium carbonate), which is found in igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks in a varying proportion reacts strongly with hydrochloric acid. So, the sedimentary rock Limestone which mainly contains calcite react strongly with the acid while Dolostone which mainly contains dolomite (calcium magnesium carbonate) reacts less vigorously. Another carbonate mineral aragonite, found in metamorphic rocks also reacts strongly with hydrochloric acid.

What are 5 examples of coevolution from the movie Evolutionary Arms Race?

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

1. The adaptation of the garter snake to the increasing toxicity of the rough-skin newt

2. The development of antibiotic-resistance by the tuberculosis bacteria in prisoners in Russian prisons

3. The development of FIV-resistance in wildcats

4. The immunity to HIV in about 10% of caucasians due to mutations in their cells that occured among those who survived the Black Death.

5. The development of immunity to asthma in children exposed to livestock at an early age in Bavaria

Explanation:

Coevolution refers to the the evolution that occurs in two species of organisms due to the mutual interaction or interdependence of the two species. Due to this interaction among species, a change in one organism results in adaptive changes in the other organism as well.

Coevolution can occur is any of these relationships between organisms: predator-prey, mutualism, or commensalism.

In the movie, Evolutionary arms race, the following examples of coevolution were highlighted:

1. The adaptation of the garter snake to the increasing toxicity of the rough-skin newt.

2. The development of antibiotic-resistance by the tuberculosis bacteria in prisoners in Russian prisons.

3. The development of FIV-resistance in wildcats.

4. The immunity to HIV in about 10% of caucasians due to mutations in their cells that occured among those who survived the Black Death.

5. The development of immunity to asthma in children exposed to livestock at an early age in Bavaria.
