A local rock collector claims that she has found the first example of pyroxene and sodium-rich feldspar in the same rock. Write a commentary about her claim for publication in a rock collector society newsletter.

The rock containing clinopyroxene and plagioclase (a type of feldspar) is called either basalt (fine grained extrusive rock) or gabbro (coarse grained intrusive rock). The plagioclase is generally calcium rich i.e. anorthite rich. But rock contains sodium rich feldspar. This means the sodium has replaced calcium. This replacement occurs in underwater (in oceans/seas) extrusion of basalt where sodium from seawater replaces the calcium in anorthite rich plagioclase feldspar. The altered basalt due to sodium exchange is called spilite which contains sodium rich feldspar and pyroxene.

Explanation:

i'm gonna put a couple so you can chose from

explanation:

if you know the fur color of the offspring mice, you can use the ratios to identify the genotypes of the parents.

if either parent mouse passes a dominant allele, the offspring will have black fur.

if the parental mice has two different fur color (i.e white and black) , the color of the offspring's fur would be either black, white, or the combination of both (grey)

hope this : )
