Magma mixing occurs when magmas of a different composition intrude a larger magma body. In some cases, the melts are immiscible and stay separated to form pillow like collections of denser mafic magmas on the bottom of less dense dense felsic magma chambers. The mafic pillow basalts will demonstrate a felsic matrix, suggesting magma mingling ...
Aggregate fruits may also be accessory fruits, in which parts of the flower other than the ovary become fleshy and form part of the fruit. The individual parts of an aggregate fruit come in many forms. Common examples are: Drupelets: Raspberry; Dewberry and blackberry, also an accessory fruit, with a fleshy receptacle; Achenes:
A selection of accessory fruits (from left to right: pear, fig, and strawberry) An accessory fruit is a fruit that contains tissue derived from plant parts other than the ovary. In other words, the flesh of the fruit develops not from the floral ovary, but from some adjacent tissue exterior to the carpel (for example, from receptacles or sepal ...
Potentilla indica, known commonly as mock strawberry, Indian-strawberry, or snakeberry in North America, [2] is a flowering plant in the family Rosaceae. [1] It has ternate foliage and an aggregate accessory fruit, similar to the true strawberries of the Fragaria genus. [3]
Other common accessory minerals include spinel, garnet, biotite, or magnetite. A peridotite containing significant amounts of one of these minerals may have its classification refined accordingly; for example, if a lhertzolite contains up to 5% spinel, it is a spinel-bearing lhertzolite , while for amounts up to 50%, it would be classified as a ...
A pome is an accessory fruit composed of one or more carpels surrounded by accessory tissue. The accessory tissue is interpreted by some specialists as an extension of the receptacle and is then referred to as "fruit cortex", [3] and by others as a fused hypanthium (floral cup). [3] It is the most edible part of this fruit. [citation needed]
The plants first bear fruit after growing about 3–4 years, [5] and produce two crops per year, after the end of the rainy season. This evergreen plant produces small, red berries, while white flowers are produced for many months of the year.
Cumulate rock – Igneous rocks formed by the accumulation of crystals from a magma either by settling or floating. Flow banding – Bands or layers that can sometimes be seen in rock that formed from magma; Fractional crystallization (chemistry) – Method for refining substances based on differences in their solubility
