What is the lower mantle made of?
It is made up of a magnesium silicate mineral called Perovskite. For more information on the chemical composition and mineralogy of the mantle, please see the related question.
What type of mineral is aragonite?
Aragonite is a carbonate mineral it is a polymorph of the more common mineral calcite, it is mainly found in animal's shells.
What is one difference in how rocks and minerals are classified?

Is color a useful property when trying to identify a mineral?
no, because the same mineral can be more than one color.
How is a rock different than a mineral?
Mineralsare homogeneous, naturally occurring, inorganic solids. Each mineral has a definite chemical composition and a characteristic crystalline structure. A mineral may be a single element such as copper (Cu) or gold (Au), or it may be a compound made up of a number of elements. About 2,500 different minerals have been described.Rocks are made up of one or more minerals.
Non-living substances made up of one or more minerals are known as?
LavaRocks
Non living substances made up of one or more minerals are known as?

Are bacteria living substances?
It would be more accurate to describe bacteria as living organisms, rather than living substances. Substances are not alive.
Solid material made of one or more minerals or other substances?
A rock is a solid material made of one or more minerals or other substances, such as volcanic glass or organic matter. Rocks are classified based on their mineral composition, texture, and how they formed. They are the building blocks of Earth's crust and can provide valuable information about the geologic history of a region.
Is a mineral made up of more than one rock?
No, a mineral is not made up of rocks. Minerals are naturally occurring, inorganic substances with a specific chemical composition and crystal structure. Rocks, on the other hand, are aggregates of minerals or mineraloids.
Which substances absorb in the large intestine?
Any more water or mineral left in the food.
What is a solid mineral made up of one or more minerals or other substances including the remains of once living things called?
A rock. E.g. Conglomerate-Quartz(sometimes) Gabbro-Augite, Mica Limestone-calcite(made up of dead underwater creatures) Relict features in carbonates are known as allochems and can be lithics or fossils. Minerals are the building blocks of rocks, like elements are the building blocks of minerals, that said rocks can be made up of entirely one element or mineral. Known as native ore deposits you would call something native - e.g. native copper.
What are the two kinds of substances?
The two types of substances are pure substances and mixtures. Pure substances are made of only one type of particle and cannot be separated into other substances by physical means, while mixtures are made of two or more different substances that are physically combined and can be separated by physical means.
Does a rock qualify as something living?
No. A rock is mineral. It may have been living at one time, but no more.
What is a pure substance made up two or more substances?
A mixture is a substance made up of two or more pure substances.
What substance is made up of two or more different substances?
The mixture is the combination of the two or more substances.
What is a compound minerals?
a compound mineral is a mineral that is made up of more than one element
