Biology

Answer:

The three factors that influence the textures of igneous rocks are the speed of cooling, the silicate content, and the water content.

Igneous rocks contain randomly arranged interlocking crystals. The size of the crystals depends on how quickly the molten magma solidified: magma that cools slowly will form an igneous rock with large crystals. lava that cools quickly will form an igneous rock with small crystals. When magma cools, crystals form because the solution is super-saturated with respect to some minerals. If the magma cools quickly, the crystals do not have much time to form, so they are very small. If the magma cools slowly, then the crystals have enough time to grow and become large.

The stimuli are perceived by the spinal cord but not the brain therefore the selected option is correct.

Thus, option-D is correct.

Why are common names not a good reference to a species?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

All the above options are correct. Hence the most relevant answers for the questions are all the options mentioned above.

Explanation:

Common names are not preferred because they can vary according to the people living in the society, religion, culture and their own suitability. We can get various example where a animal is known by various names in different countries or region.

Providing scientific name that is accepted by all over the world is more convenient rather than common names which are given by the local people to the specific animal or bird. Scientific name remove all the confusion between the the people. common names can be kept according to their location culture species and their language
