Ebook {Epub PDF} Life on the Rocks by K.A. Cross

Base your answers to questions 12 and 13 on the geologic cross section below. The large cone-shaped mountain on Earth’s surface is a volcano. Letters A, B, and C represent certain rocks. Rock B is most likely which type of igneous rock? (1) granite (2) peridotite (3) pegmatite (4) basalt. The middle rock set, the Grand Canyon Supergroup, is primarily sandstone and mudstone, both sedimentary rocks, with some areas of igneous rock. They are from the late Proterozoic, only slightly younger than the metamorphic basement rocks. These rocks do not contain many fossils, because they formed before complex life on Earth was common. 40 K - radioactive with a half life of billion years, 40 K decays to 40 Ar and 40 Ca, only the K-Ar branch is used in dating. 41 K - non-radioactive (stable) K is an element that goes into many minerals, like feldspars and biotite.
