The first minerals to crystallize from a magma are those with the lowest melting point.Group of answer choicesTrueFalseNext

Mineral growth in magmas at the surface with temperatures around 800 to 1,300°C occurs in the following wayMultiple ChoiceIron and magnesium will link up with aluminum and the silicon-oxygen tetrahedron as magma temperature decreases to sequentially form four distinct and discontinuous families of minerals—olivine, pyroxene, amphibole, and biotite mica.Calcium will combine with aluminum and the silicon-oxygen tetrahedron to begin forming the plagioclase feldspar family, a continuous and gradational series of minerals.Both of these are correct.None of these choices are correct.
