Based on the rock type for Mount Rainer Volcano, what would you expect the rock has a high, low or intermediate silica content?
Ans- intermediate silica content
As Mount Rainer Volcano contained andesitic lava so its lava has intermediate silica content , with moderate viscosity value having moderately explosive nature .

There were volcanoes in MN in the past. What caused them? What type of volcano? What type of rock was formed? How do we know? mn is minnesota
N9M.9 During volcanic eruptions, chunks of solid rock can be blasted out of a volcano: these projectiles are called volcanic blocks. Imagine that during an eruption of Mount St. Helens (a volcano in Washington state) a block lands near an observing station that is located 2.5 km east of and 900 m below the summit. Assume that air drag is negli- gible and that the block was ejected from the summit at a 35 angle from the horizontal. Find (a)...
c) A borehole was drilled into unfractured rock, where the virgin rock has principal stresses of σ1-100 MPa, σ2-50 MPa, σ3-25 MPa. The major principal stress is vertical, and the borehole was drilled parallel to the direction of the intermediate principal stress. Sketch a cross-section of the borehole, and indicate positions and values of any stresses which you can calculate. Where would you expect shear-type failure, and where would you expect tensile-type failure. Explain whether either types of failure likely...
27. Which of the following combinations would you expect to find in an individual who has been diagnosed with AIDS? (A) CD4 cell count below 200 and high viral load. (B) Low levels of HIV antibodies and low viral load. (C) Low viral load and high levels of Gp 120 antibodies. (D) High CD4 count and high viral load. 28. What is the role of HIV viral integrase? (A) It must cut the host DNA to splice in viral DNA....
Density A piece of volcanic rock washed up on the 79th Street Beach. The rock has a volume of 863 ml and a mass of 729 grams. (a) What is the rock's density? D = ? (b) If the nearest volcano is in Martinique, how did the rock probably get to Miami Beach? Answer = Empirical Formula Percent composition data for a compound made of Carbon, Fluorine and chlorine by mass is the following: carbon = 9.933%, 58.63% chlorine, and...

Membrane fluidity for bacteria is critical. What type of fatty acids would you expect bacteria to synthesize as growth temperature increases? Why type of fatty acids would you expect bacteria to synthesize as growth temperature decreases? Why cannot bacteria simply synthesize the same type of fatty acids regardless of temperature?
