The calc-alkaline magma series is one of two main subdivisions of the subalkaline magma series, the other subalkaline magma series being the tholeiitic series. A magma series is a series of compositions that describes the evolution of a mafic magma, which is high in magnesium and iron and produces basalt or gabbro, as it fractionally crystallizes to become a felsic magma, which is low in magnesium and iron and produces rhyolite or granite. Calc-alkaline rocks are rich in alkaline earths (magnesia and calcium oxide) and alkali metals and make up a major part of the crust of the continents.
The diverse rock types in the calc-alkaline series include volcanic types such as basalt, andesite, dacite, rhyolite, and also their coarser-grained intrusive equivalents (gabbro, diorite, granodiorite, and granite). They do not include silica-undersaturated, alkalic, or peralkaline rocks.

I'm taking Calc 1 and Physics 1 this semester. Things are going well, although Physics can be difficult at times. Next semester I would be taking Physics 2 and Calc 2 at the same time. I keep hearing from other students that this is a bad idea. Can someone shed some light?

Most Pertinent Topics; Calc 2 --> 3
Heyo,
Posted here a while back looking for books, as I was planning to study over spring and summer before I registered at a CC. Now it's time to pick my classes for my first semester.
So, I was wondering which topics in calc II I should be reviewing...
Where 2 is mostly Intergral and Series and 1 is Derivative.
I just want to know what to expect since I'll be taking calc2 with some other hard classes. I easily made an A in calc 1 and my calc 2 professor is supposed to be much better.
Anything I should review before hand?
