Which structures control the flow of blood through the heart and What governs the functioning of these structures?
Valves and blood vessels control the flow of blood through the heart. The aorta governs the functioning of these structures by being the main artery in the cardiac system.

Does granite have a definite chemical makeup?
No. Minerals have definite chemical structures, but not rocks.
Which silicate minerals the the main component of most rocks on Earth's surface?
oxygen and aluminum
What are main types of silicate structures?
Isolated, Double chain, framework, single chain, and sheet
What are the two main ways that minerals are put together in rock?
The two main ways minerals are put together in rock are crystalline and clastic. The crystalline process gives rocks the characteristic and structure of crystals. Clastic rocks are composed of fragments, or clasts, of pre-existing minerals and rock.
Which silicate minerals are the main component of most of Earth?
They would include olivine, quartz, the feldspars, and the micas.
What is the main mineral of the land?
It depends what you mean by 'land'. Silicate minerals such as quartz are the building blocks of most common rock types.
What rock contains aluminum silicates and other minerals?
Bauxite is the main source of aluminum. Albite is a feldspar mineral and is a sodium aluminum silicate All rocks contain other minerals.
Where can you find sodium Silicate?
Sodium silicate is nothing but Sand . So the source of sodium silicate in earth crust. The main use of sodium silicate is to make glass.
Which silicate minerals are the main components of most rocks on earth's surface?

Why do clay minerals change to mica in the metamorphism of shale?
Because it does,that the main reason jkThe mild heat and pressure that changes clay into shale causes the minerals in the clay to align and compress into more crystalline layers, ie. mica.
