Select the choice that best completes the following sentence: When cooled slowly, transformations near the melting temperature tend to yield grains due to the formation of nucleation sites followed by __ grain growth.

Transformations near the melting temperature develop coarse grains because few nucleation sites are formed and the rate of the grain growth is usually slow. This is because of the process that starts with recrystallization, recovery, and nucleation before growth can occur. While recrystallization enables the grain to increase in size at high temperature, nucleation gives the grain the energy to irreversibly grow into larger-sized nucleus.
