Sophie visited Carlsbad Caverns with her family during her summer vacation, and she was amazed at the cave’s formations. She learned that the cave was formed from minerals. Rearrange the phrases describing one of the ways minerals form into the correct order. Place the earliest stage of mineral formation at the top. Place the final stage at the bottom. (Write 1 2 3 or 4 in order)
1. a solution forms from a liquid and dissolved substances
2. a warm solution flows through a crack in the rocks there
3. elements and compounds leave as the solution cools
4. elements and compounds crystallize
BASICALLY SAY WHICH STEPS GO FIRST IN MINERAL FORMATIONS! PLESSS

The ways through which the minerals form include the following order:

2. a warm solution flows through a crack in the rocks there

1. a solution forms from a liquid and dissolved substances

3. elements and compounds leave as the solution cools

4. elements and compounds crystallize

Explanation:

From the explanations above, it could be seen that a warm solution (most probably water) flows through the cracks in the rocks leading to dissolution of substances to form liquid. When the liquid cools, the elements leaves and crystallize as compounds.

the farther away the object is from the central star (the sun) it's gravitainal pull on the object is weaker when it is farther
