False.
False. Continental crust is mostly composed of less dense granite and granodiorite rocks, which contain minerals such as quartz, feldspar, and mica. Basaltic rocks are more characteristic of oceanic crust.
True. Continental crust is primarily composed of lighter rocks such as granite, which are less dense than the basaltic rocks found in oceanic crust. This is why continental crust is thicker and less dense than oceanic crust.
false. SiO2 + CaMg(CaCO3)2 -> MgSiO4 + CaCO3 + CO2 (not balanced) Quartz + Dolomite -> Forsterite +Calcite + excess CO2 that is released as gas Forsterite is a type of olivine. Olivine's chemical formula is (Mg,Fe)SiO4, with the Mg as forsterite and the Fe as fayelite. Oceanic crust is rick in basalt and gabbro and these rocks have a very low quartz content or are void of it. Continental crust contains a large amount of granitic rocks from which quartz is found in most frequently. Olivine usually forms in very hydrous situations where there is water involved, and comes from oceanic crust usually.
Actually, a volcanic mountain with gently sloping sides made of basalt lava flows is typically called a shield volcano, not a cinder cone. Cinder cones are typically smaller, steeper-sided volcanoes formed from ejected rock fragments.
No, the sun's structure is not uniform throughout its interior. The sun has different layers, including the core where nuclear fusion occurs, the radiative zone, and the convective zone. These layers have different temperatures and densities, leading to distinct regions with varying properties.
When a micrograph is false-colored, it is when scientists use computer technology to change/add colors in the cell structure to make certain areas stand out due to the light.

Absorbance rises with concentration because there is more material for a given frequency of light to be absorbed in. Your statement is false.
False. When light passes into a more dense material, it bends towards the normal. This phenomenon is known as refraction, and it occurs due to the change in speed of light as it moves from one medium to another with different optical densities.
Not exactly sure what you mean...do you mean "true or false: a given mineral can have varying densities?" If you do mean that, than the answer is true.
False. The typical dress code in a private school can vary depending on the individual school's policies. Some private schools may require dark pants and a light-colored shirt, while others may have different dress code requirements. It's best to check with the specific school for their regulations.
The duration of False Light is 1.5 hours.
Not entirely true. It does not have to be a polished sample. It is often a transparent or semitransparent sample and the source of illumination can be a colored light or polarized light to bring out the features that need to be examined.
False. Continental crust is mostly composed of less dense granite and granodiorite rocks, which contain minerals such as quartz, feldspar, and mica. Basaltic rocks are more characteristic of oceanic crust.
No, the lens of the eye helps to focus light onto the retina, but it does not control the amount of light that strikes the retina. The iris, the colored part of the eye, controls the amount of light entering the eye by adjusting the size of the pupil.
False Light was created on 1993-02-04.
