The Lost Critennse Gerbert is a creature known only as a Critennse from the planet Raxacoricofollapatorius. He is the last alien of his kind, and the only one to make it on Earth. Gerb is a very tall terrestrial, being a little over 7 feet. His arms are very muscled, but end in one long tentacles on each side. The lower half of his body resembles the expected shape of a body builder. Large fishy looking eyes are sticking from each side of his raisin shaped head. As Gerbert was growing up, a massive

The Granite rock is an intrusive rock that formed from magma coming from beneath the earth’s surface. It went through a slow cooling process that allowed the minerals; mainly quartz and feldspar to form where the result is the coarse texture. The granite went through hydrothermal metamorphism (involves hot fluid) and contact metamorphism. The gneiss, however, being able to withstand high temperatures came from a large country rock. This piece of gneiss broke off from the country rock and got trapped

My gargoyle has a big face but it looks kind of cute. It has no eyelids because the gargoyle is suppose to be awake at all times to watch for evil things. You can see that the ears are big which causes the face to look big too. The texture of the gargoyle looks smooth. As you can see, I try to make the nose look big but it looks like a decent size and the mouth is big with two small fangs. My idea of creating this gargoyle was to make it look kind of cute but mean in a way. By making it mean, I drew

Sequoia National Park and Kings Canyon National park share a common border. Sequoia has over 400,000 acres compared to Kings Canyon's acreage which is over 460,000. The two natural attractions that are the vying for the crowning glory of Sequoia Park are Mount Whitney and the General Sherman Tree. Mount Whitney is the highest point above sea level in the United States, and the Sherman tree is the largest tree found anywhere in the entire world. Kings Canyon is managed jointly with Sequoia Park

Diamondhead city is located on the southeastern Hancock County in Mississippi, United States of America. . The Diamondhead city is the home of approximately 9108 peoples in 2018. The total area of Diamondhead city, MS is 11.7 square miles, where the land is 11.1 square miles and the water body is 0.6 square miles. For Diamondhead city the summer lasts for 4.2 months, from the middle of May to middle of September. The highest temperature will be in July- its 90 degrees Fahrenheit with the average

orogeny has led to the formation of sedimentary rocks that can be classified into autochthonous and allochthonous, whereas the Normanskill formation is autochthonous, and five distinctive thrust slices from the low Taconic sequence are allochthonous. Another feature is the Cortland Complex, which is a late Ordovician magmatic intrusion formed by norite, gabbro, hornblende norite, monzodiorite, diorite, hornblende pyroxenite, and peridotite. The sedimentary rocks in the Dutchess county and Westchester counties

The canadian shield is made up of bedrock that existed from an ancient continent called Actica that last existed about 2.5 billion years ago.This continent also formed into scotland, greenland, and siberia. The area was originally full of mountains before it was lowered down to what we know as the canadian shield This was likely caused by water erosion that sank the land around it, leaving the bedrock exposed, resulting in the forms that are now known as the canadian shield.The Canadian Shield is

Giselle Torres Period 1 November 29, 2017 Thermal Fracture of Rocks Lab Background: Naturally, rocks go through a process in which they are broken down into smaller sediments of rock. This process is known as Mechanical Weathering. Physical weathering, on the other hand, is the same process but without changing their chemical composition. Physical weathering is caused by changes of temperature in which results in rocks being fractured. A type of physical weathering is heat fracture. Heat fracture

I believe this because the density of the rock was was around 3.0g/ml. The only solids that have a density around that are Sand which has a density of about 2.7g/ml, Sodium Peroxide which has a density of about 2.8g/ml, Aluminum which also has a density of around 2.7g/ml and Potassium Permanganate

Abstract Zoning in plagioclase feldspar is often an indicator of magmatic differentiation. This is mainly due to the process of fractional crystallization changing the chemistry of magmatic bodies, and has been documented in many localities. A case study will examine a 2010 report of the Bezymianny Volcano in the Kamchatka peninsula of Russia, where researchers studied oscillatory zoning in the plagioclase. An interpretation of the results has shown frequent replenishments to the magma chamber
