I got a samples of New Axe Cool Metal shampoo and conditioner and on the bottle it says it has zinc and quartz in it to cool your head and skin. Does this really work? Is the zinc and quartz stuff bad for my skin/hair? Or is there no difference at all in shampoos and body washes because they all smell decent and do the same thing?
It's a rock made up of several minerals.
What does this have to do with botany?
because it is man jks this is why. Granite containing potassium feldspar, plagioclase feldspar, quartz, and biotite and/or amphibole Composition Potassium feldspar, plagioclase feldspar, and quartz; differing amounts of muscovite, biotite, and hornblende-type amphiboles.Granite is a common and widely occurring type of intrusive, felsic, igneous rock. Granites usually have a medium- to coarse-grained texture. Occasionally some individual crystals (phenocrysts) are larger than the groundmass, in which case the texture is known as porphyritic. A granitic rock with a porphyritic texture is sometimes known as a porphyry. Granites can be pink to gray in color, depending on their chemistry and mineralogy. By definition, granite is an igneous rock with at least 20% quartz by volume. Granite differs from granodiorite in that at least 35% of the feldspar in granite is alkali feldspar as opposed to plagioclase; it is the alkali feldspar that gives many granites a distinctive pink color. Outcrops of granite tend to form tors and rounded massifs. Granites sometimes occur in circular depressions surrounded by a range of hills, formed by the metamorphic aureole or hornfels. Granite is usually found in the continental plates of the Earth's crust.Granite is nearly always massive (lacking internal structures), hard and tough, and therefore it has gained widespread use as a construction stone. The average density of granite is between 2.65and 2.75 g/cm3, its compressive strength usually lies above 200 MPa, and its viscosity at standard temperature and pressure is 3-6 ? 1019 Pa?s.The word granite comes from the Latin granum, a grain, in reference to the coarse-grained structure of such a crystalline rock.Granitoid is a general, descriptive field term for light-colored, coarse-grained igneous rocks. Petrographic examination is required for identification of specific types of granitoids.
