A rock differs from a mineral in being
Answer: B
Correct answer: an aggregate of one or more minerals
A mineral is a naturally occurring solid of definite composition and ordered internal structure; a rock is an assemblage of mineral grains held together. Most rocks contain several minerals, though some - a pure limestone, a quartzite - contain essentially one, which is why the definition says one or more.
