What formation occurs when the two formations growing from the ceiling and the floor of the cave meet?
Formations that grow downward from the top of a cave are called stalactites. Stalactites may be composed of amberat, lava, minerals, mud, peat, pitch, and sand. Formations that grow from the floor upwards are called stalagmites.
(You can remember the difference by thinking of the phrase "ants in your pants". The mites go up and the tights come down.)

What occurs first labor cleavage implantation gastrulation or formation of placenta?

What is the organ primarily involved in water absorbstion and feces formation?
The intestines, but water reabsorption occurs mostly in the lower small intestines. Feces formation along with some more fluid absorption occurs in the colon of the large intestines. But the large intestines' primary job is to compact liquid waste into solid waste.
How does deposition form a cave?
Deposition in a cave occurs when minerals in water slowly accumulate on the cave walls and ceiling, creating formations like stalactites and stalagmites. This process happens over thousands of years as water drips through the cave's ceiling, leaving behind mineral deposits that build up into these unique cave formations.
How does cube crystal formation occur in natural mineral formations?
Cube crystal formation in natural mineral formations occurs when the mineral's atoms arrange themselves in a cubic pattern as they solidify from a molten state or precipitate from a solution. This process is influenced by factors such as temperature, pressure, and the presence of other elements in the surrounding environment.
Use word in a sentence stalactite and stalagmite?
The cavern was filled with stalactites & stalagmites.From Wikipedia:"A stalagmite is a type of speleothem that rises from the floor of a limestone cave due to the dripping of mineralized solutions and the deposition of calcium carbonate. This stalagmite formation occurs only under certain pH conditions within the underground cavern. The corresponding formation on the ceiling of a cave is known as a stalactite. If these formations grow together, the result is known as a column."
What type of chemical weathering is associated with the formation of stalagtites and stalagmites?
the dripping of mineralized solutions and the deposition of calcium carbonate. The corresponding formation on the ceiling of a cave is known as a stalactite. If these formations grow together, the result is known as a column. is what happens but I think the process is called Dissolution
Do the formation of stalactites and stalagmites occurs in the zone of saturation?
Yes, the formation of stalactites and stalagmites occurs in the zone of saturation. Groundwater drips through the ceiling of a cave and leaves behind mineral deposits when the water evaporates, forming stalactites. When the water drips onto the cave floor, it leaves deposits that build up into stalagmites.
When pressure builds up in rock which is located under other rock formations occurs?
pressure occurs!
Where do stalactites came from?
Caves are damp places, so when a drip of water forms on the ceiling, and does not fall, eventually, it sort of fossilizes. As more drips form, over millions of years, the stalactite lengthens. The fossilization occurs because the water in caves is rich with minerals.(A way to remember the names of the formations is StalaCtites come from the Ceiling, and StalaGmites are on the Ground)
What occurs during ctyokinesis?
Cell plate formation occurs during cytokinesis.
What occurs only in the formation of gametes.?
Meiosis
Where does cell division occurs?
cell division occurs everywhere that things are growing
What is osteogenesis?
Osteogenesis is the process of growing new bone. This occurs as children grow, and pretty much stops at the end of puberty. As a person ages, they will start to lose some of that bone growth.
Ground water erosion can result in the formation of stalactite and stalagmite in caves?
Groundwater erosion occurs when water seeps through the cracks in cave ceilings, carrying dissolved minerals. As the water drips from the cave ceiling, the mineral deposits are left behind, eventually forming stalactites. Similarly, when the water drops hit the cave floor, they deposit minerals there as well, forming stalagmites. Over time, these formations grow towards each other, eventually forming columns.
