Which of the following is a true statement about lava that contains large amounts of dissolved gases? Lava that produces violent

explosions is very viscous, which prevents the gases from escaping. When the lava does erupt, the dissolved gases escape to produce a violent eruption.
a) Lava of this type would not produce a violent eruption.

b) Lava of this type would not be viscous so the gas can escape.

c) The dissolved gases produce a violent eruption as they escape.

d) Both B and C

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The dissolved gases produce violent eruption as they escape. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Magma contains dissolved gases and these dissolved gases induce vapor <em>pressure on the magma.</em> The magma is able to remain in the dissolved state itself without erupting because this vapor pressure is less than the confining pressure of the <em>rock surrounding the magma. </em>

One the vapor pressure exceeds this confining pressure the dissolved gases begin to  expand and<em> forms small gas bubbles</em>.

The <em>density of these gas bubbles</em> called vesicles is less than the density of magma and thus naturally tries to push out. When the gas bubbles escape the magma is also pushed out. Thus greater <em>amount of dissolved gases result in violent eruptions. </em>

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-D

Explanation:

The evolution of vascular tissues in plants from non-vascular plants was an adaptive feature to survive in the terrestrial environment.  The group of plants in which vascular tissues evolved and developed is the Pteridophytes which contained stellar organization of the vascular bundles.

The pteridophytes exhibited xylem and phloem which allows the rapid uptake of the water and nutrients from the soil which allowed the growth of the plant and since plants got enough water and nutrients from the soil, they adapted to grow tall so that they can maximize the output of photosynthesis in bright sunshine.

Thus, option-D is the correct answer.

valkas [14]
<span>In getting her plants to grow, the gardener should use the color blue for her colored translucent sheets. The reason for this is because it will be absorbed by the plants, causing them to get the light absorption that they so desperately need. Other colors, such as green, are absorbed into plants (as can be observed by their green colors), and thus they do not absorb the light through this color.</span>

Lynna [10]

Answer:

Malignant melanoma cells would have active telomerases that constantly replenish and lengthen telomeres.

Explanation:

Telomerase can be described as enzymes which add the repetitive sequences called telomeres at the end of a chromosome. Telomeres can be described as repetitive sequences at the end of the chromosome which are involved in protecting the chromosome from any damage.

In a normal skin cell, the telomeres will shorten with time. But in a malignant skin cell, the telomerase will add the repetitive sequence again and again. The telomers will not be able to shorten.

Softa [21]
Many poisonous and toxic animals are brightly coloured, and other animals and predators are instinctively wary of brightly coloured animals. This is called warning colouration or aposematism. Described more scientifically, these colouration adaptations are to deter predators by using a warning signal,<span> which indicates that consuming the prey item would be unprofitable</span>. Nudibranchs back up this warning by secreting poisons that would be toxic or foul-tasting to predators. Nudibranchs have developed this strategy probably because it has a lower energy cost compared to developing a protective shell.
