puzzle
3) tracks of hot spots, such as the Hawaiian Island-Emperor Seamont chain
4) data obtained from GPS (global positioning system) satellites
5)
different rock types and mountain belts on opposite sides of the Atlantic
Ocean

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Different rock types and mountain belts on opposite sides of the Atlantic.

Explanation:

The plate tectonics theory is a theory that suggests that Earth's crust is divided into numerous pieces that are constantly moving, driven by the force of the convection currents from the mantle below them. It is a theory that has been put in the spotlight by Wegener, and gradually, with more and more evidence being put on the table, it became a widely accepted theory.

The evidence consists of fossils, sea-floor spreading, hot spot island arcs, matching continental margins, the same type of rocks from the same age in different continents, etc. The latter is evidence that tells us that mountains, now on different continents, were actually part of a single mountain range, but over time were separated. Such is the example with the Appalachians on one side, and the mountains of Greenland, Ireland, Britain, and Norway, all having the same rocks with the same composition, formed at the same time.

Answers

Answer:

C.  the Red Sea

Explanation:

The Red Sea is the body of water between Northern Africa and the Arabian Peninsula (Asia). The countries that have access to it are Egypt, Israel, Eritrea, Djibouti, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, and Yemen.

It is separated from the Arabian Sea by the Gulf of Aden on the north, flowing into it. They both later instill together into the Indian Ocean. On the south, it forms the Gulf of Suez on the shores of Egypt, and the Gulf of Aqaba that borders four countries – Egypt, Israel, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia.

The name of the sea comes from the coral reefs that give it a specific color, making it seem red.

D

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is D. People should be granted the freedom of speech, religion, and expression.

Explanation:

The Enlightenment was a philosophical and political movement that took place in Europe and North America during the 18th and 19th centuries. Through this movement, the first liberal politicians and thinkers began to appear, such as John Locke or Jacques Rousseau, who defended the Freedom as a principal human right, a member of a set of natural rights, as every human being was necessarily born with said right.

Thus, the Founding Fathers of America took these ideals and adapted them to the construction of the new nation, extolling the right to liberty as the main right of American citizens, along with the right to life and the pursuit of happiness.

A population

Explanation:

The rate of natural increase of a population depends on birth and death rates, which are strongly influenced by the population age structure. Births occur primarily to people in the younger-adult age groups. If there are comparatively more young adults than older adults where mortality is highest, then even at replacement fertility levels (when each woman has about an average of two children) there will be more births than deaths.

The movement of tectonic plates in two locations is described below: Location A: Tectonic plates sliding in opposite directions past each other Location B: Tectonic plates move apart under the ocean Which statement is most likely correct? Mountains may form in both locations. There is no chance of earthquakes in the two locations. New land may form in Location B but not in Location A. Volcanic eruptions may occur in Location A but not in Location B.

Answers

Answer:

New land may form in Location B but not in Location A.

Explanation:

When the tectonic plates move in the way described in statement A, earthquakes of different intensities occur, but this movement is not sufficient to create new land formations, that is, new terrains. In contrast, the removal of the plates, as described in affirmation B, causes mid-ocean ridges, which can cause the creation of new terrain and new structures.

New land may form in Location B but not in Location A.

Answer:

South Africa and Egypt are two of the most developed countries in Africa.

Explanation:

Africa, as a continent, is the poorest and least developed one (excluding Antarctica here of course). There are few countries that are managing to develop rapidly though and have become economic leaders in the continent, but also good examples for the other countries of Africa.

South Africa and Egypt are among the countries that develop the fastest in the world. This is not to say that they are among the most developed in the world though, as they are around the global average and they still have a lot of issues to sort out and a lot of further development to do. Also, countries that rank very high when it comes to development, that is not something that is possible for the already developed countries, but only for the developing countries because they have a lot to catch up with it and there is such space and opportunity for high development.

Give an example to illustrate how a person may incur an opportunity cost without paying anyone any money.

Answers

Answer:

An example that addresses the opportunity cost without involving money, could be: You used your day off cleaning the house, when you could have gone to see your childhood friends.

Explanation:

Opportunity cost is usually established by spending money. This is because money is a scarce resource, which if used in one situation cannot be used in others. To create examples of opportunity cost without using money, we must use another scarce resource, such as time, for example. In this case, a good example would be the time spent cleaning the house, which could have been used to find old friends.

g Most of the pulling force driving plate motion is produced at ________. Fill in the blank with one of the following: convergent boundary || divergent boundary || transform boundary || subduction zone || passive margin || continent-continent collision || hotspot || plate interior || continental plate interior || oceanic plate interior

Answers

The correct answer is "subduction zone."

Most of the pulling force driving plate motion is produced at the subduction zone.

In Geology terms, the subduction zone is the part of big collisions of tectonic plates on planet Earth. These plates are large pieces of crust that move very slow  -we are talking millions of years- and they move across the surface.

So in this subduction zone, the plates move and collide. One plate bends and slides under the other plate, creating the collision. This collision is so hard that is what causes earthquakes. One example is the volcanic zone called the Ring of Fire.

Imagine that you are a member of a team of scientists who are drilling into a large crater approximately 200 km wide. The crater was formed by an NEO impact that wiped out many species 251 million years ago. The drilling team will recover rock samples during the drilling process. You have some data to suggest that the crater is located between 500 and 1,500 meters below the surface. How will the drilling team know when the drill reaches the crater

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The team will obviously known that they have reach the crater because during impact the rock would have ungergone contact melting of the rock. However, the rock maybe composed of angular fragments in a matrix that may be similar or a different material underneath the crater. Suppose the scientist drilling further down the surface, there will be presence of little or no impact. But inside the crater there will be fragments of broken rocks. They will observe the shocked minerals and the drill will eventually located the undisturbed sequence of rocks at the crater floor.
