because sandstone is a porous media meaning it have a lot of pores then mud filtrate (its water) can enter the rock but the solids of the mud cant hence mud cake form.
shale is a porous media too but its pores not connected together so mud cant enter the shale and mud cake don't form.

Cutting a cake into 16 pieces with 5 cuts?

All your cuts will be diameters, which means all the cuts will be straight lines that pass through the center of the cake. Your first cut can be anywhere, as long as it's straight and passes through the center. But to make things easy, make your first cut vertical. You now have two equal pieces. Then rotate the cake 90 degrees and make a second diameter cut. It will be perpendicular to the first cut. You now have four equal pieces. Now, rotate the cake 45 degrees and make a third cut through the center. After doing so, rotate the cake 90 degrees from the last cut and make a fourth cut. You should now have eight equal pieces. By now you should be getting the idea. You have to make four more cuts. Each cut should be through the center and should exactly halve the eight slices. This will produce 16 equal slices. By the way, having the interval is a good way of cutting up a square or rectangular cake, too. Every cut should halve the remaining pieces. You start by cutting the cake in half. Then you cut the halves in half. Then you cut the quarters (halves of halves) in half, and so on.

Volcanoes erupt due to the build-up of pressure from molten rock (magma) beneath the Earth's surface.

When baking a cake what does it mean when it says to fold one mixture into another mixture?

When baking, folding is a method used to incorporate more air into the mixtures. In order to fold, you need a spatula or a spoon. Carefully pour mixture A into mixture B a little at a time. Take the spatula, scrape the bottom of the bowl, and take mixture B and "fold" it over the other mixture. Do not simply stir, as that would dispel the air and make the cake heavy. Continue to scrape the bottom of the bowl and flop the mixture A over mixture B until well combined!

So basically, you are literally folding the mixture!

Do you capitalize the word Vanilla cupcake in a sentence?

No.

Why would you think to capitalize the word vanilla any more than you would think to capitalize strawberry, chocolate, or mint?

There are, of course -and as always-, exceptions.

1.) Capitalize if the flavor is a brand name, in other words, a registered trademark.

also:

2.) Capitalize any word in a flavor name (or anything else) which is the name or adjective form of a country, state, city, region or any other proper name.

Examples of these exceptions:

Do you like my Grand Marnier cupcakes?

Here are some Drambuie cupcakes.

I could eat a dozen French vanilla cupcakes!

"I love Boston cream pie!"

Have a glass of Tahitian vanilla coconut milk.

"This isn't just any old chocolate bar. It's is a yummy Brazilian chocolate one!"

"My favorite treat at Basin-Robbin's is their Rootn' Tootn' Rum Chocolate ice cream."

(In this case even 'rum' and 'chocolate' are capitalized because they're parts of a registered trademark, hence the whole group of words is one proper name.)

"My sister is a baker. She invented a super new flavor of cream puff. She calls them her Montenegro Vanilla cream puffs" (Here vanilla is capitalized because it's part of a registered proper name and may or may not taste anything like 'regular' vanilla.)

Should you wrap a cake in plastic and newspaper before freezing?

To freeze a cake, the best way is to first put the cake (unwrapped) in the freezer for about 45 minutes to let the icing get firm to prevent it from being crushed. Then wrap the cake very well in plastic wrap, wrapping it in several layers, and closely to the cake, to remove as much air as possible. Then you can either wrap in in foil, freezer paper or wax paper for extra protection. You can then place it in a cake box if you have room in your freezer to help prevent it from being crushed.

Newspaper serves absolutely no purpose in freezing cakes, and the ink can actually be toxic.
