How does fractional crystallization lead to magmatic differentiation?
Fractional crystallization occurs when minerals crystallize and separate from the magma as it cools, leading to a change in the composition of the remaining magma. This process results in the formation of different rock types from the original magma, leading to magmatic differentiation by creating a variety of rock compositions within the same magma body.
What is it called when a stem cell becomes specific type of cell?
differentiation.
Are magmatic processes a form of geological metamorphism?
No, magmatic processes involve the movement and cooling of molten rock beneath the Earth's surface, while metamorphism involves changes in mineral composition, texture, or structure of rocks due to high pressures and temperatures. Magmatic processes can lead to the formation of igneous rocks, whereas metamorphism produces metamorphic rocks.
What cooling creates igneous rocks?
Magmatic (lava) cooling.
What is magmatic composition of Mount Ubinas?
It is felsic, containing rhyolite and high quantities of silicon.
How does magmatic differentiation account for variety of igneous rocks?
Magmatic differentiation accounts for a variety of igneous rocks occurring in the same body of rock by:Mixing of magmas from two or more sources.Distinct melting events from a variety of sources.Crystal fractionationPartial melting from the same source.Immiscibility.Assimilation of crustal rock by magma.
Are intrusive granites that give rise to ore minerals similar to magmas?
The intrusive granites which contain ores are the product of solidified magmas, most probably ones that have undergone significant magmatic differentiation.
What is a magmatic?
A magmatic earthquake is an earthquake triggered by the movement of magma, underground molten rock.
Is magmatic a mineral?
No, Magmatic is and adjective meaning of or realting to magma. Magma is not a mineral but molten rock underground.
Antonym of hydrothermal?
Magmatic

What is assimilation in geology?
I am guessing you are talking with regard to magmatic differentiation during the eruption process? If so assimilation is simply the chemical change in the magma due to the magma melting other rock types that make up the walls of the conduit. This process often explains "abnormal" mineral compositions.
What role is played by energy in its various forms to create magmatic and metamorphic rocks?

Why can you predict volcano eruptions?
Because I am imbued with magmatic foresight.
