Answer:
Through the study of meteorites, their chemical composition of silicates—material made of silicon and oxygen. Others contain metal—nickel and iron. Knowing what the meteorite was composed of lets you know where it came from. Chondrites are composed of hardened lava - this is occurred at the beginning of the solar system (4.5 mya). Carbonaceous chondrites contain carbon and water which formed away from the sun.
Explanation:
Answer:
A. It contains fewer volatile gases.
Explanation:
Mafic lava have a composition of about 45-55% silica with high amount of Fe, Mg, Ca.
The silica content is quite low compared to those of granitic magma whose silica content can reach up to about 60%.
What determines the viscosity of magma is basically the silica content of the magma and the temperature of the magma. Viscosity is the resistance to flow.
The higher the silica content, the lower the viscosity and the higher the amount of volatile gases. Such type of magma is the granitic magma. Granitic magma due to their viscosity flows slowly.
The lower the silica content, the higher the viscosity and the lesser the presence of volatile gases in them. Such an example is Mafic magma. Mafic magma flows very slowly with low amount of dissolved gases.
This is an example of dissolution of carbonates.
When carbon combines with minerals, it dissolves carbon. This transforms minerals that contain calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodium. When rainwater attacks formations of limestone the constituent minerals dissolve and wash away with mildly acidic rainwater.
Answer:
Convergent.
Explanation:
The collision between two lithosphere plates on the surface of earth results in the formation of convergent plate boundaries. The process of subduction occurs when one plate converges over the other plate.
The diagram given in the question shows the convergent plate boundary. The collision of two lithospheric plates have been represented in the picture.
Thus, the correct answer is option (A).
I believe the answer is C, as when the sun is tilted at different angles different places will get different amounts of sunlight.
