What is the name of the most recent supercontinent (when all of the continents were together)? laurasia pangaea gondwana eurasia the himalayan mountains are forming at a continent-ocean convergent boundary an ocean-ocean convergent boundary a continent-continent convergent boundary a divergent boundary a transform boundary the cascade range volcanoes formed at a continent-ocean convergent boundary an ocean-ocean convergent boundary a continent-continent convergent boundary a divergent boundary a transform boundary the san andreas fault is forming

Step-by-step answer

P Answered by Specialist

1

Pangaea , continental and oceanic convergent boundary, continental and ocean convergence, A transform boundary, An oceanic oceanic divergence, Alfred Wegener,

Explanation:

There are younger rocks at the ocean ridges compared to rocks away from the ridges. Magnetic field reversals recorded in rocks showing matching Zebra patterns on both sides of ridges.

At or near plate boundaries.

Convergent boundaries.

Distribution of trenches and ridges worldwide.

Hot spots (mantle plumes)

Question 7 of 20 : select the best answer for the question. 7. what are two of the processes that move tectonic plates over the surface of the earth? a. plate movement and convection currents b. ridge push and slab pull c. slab pull and crust conversion d. connection and convection question 8 of 20 : select the best answer for the question. 8. is the idea that continents move around the earth. a. isostasy b. continental drift c. climatic evidence d. seafloor spreading question 9 of 20 : select the best answer for the question. 9. which of the following

Step-by-step answer

P Answered by PhD

11

7. B - Ridge push and slab pull. the force of gravity makes the ridge to push on the lithosphere that is farther from the ridge. Slab pull motion is caused by the tectonic plate subduction.

8. B - continental drift

9. D - rift valley. For divergent boundaries, these may include rift valleys with thick sedimentary sequences.

10. D - shear. The three tyres of stress that act on Earth's rocks are compression, tension, and shear.

11. D - seismic risks.

12. A - along the ocean floor.

13. C - two oceanic plates converge. When two oceanic plates collide one oceanic plate is eventually subducted under the other.

14. B - nonexplosive, producing large amounts of lava.

15. C - pancaking. Means to collapse one floor after another.

16. D - seismometer.

17. B - fault. Earth doesn't just move but a fault causes it to move.

18. D - the removal of mass from the crust causes the crust to rise.

19. B - surface waves. The type of wave in an earthquake that will cause the most destruction is a surface wave and a seismic wave.

20. C - convergent and divergent boundaries.

In school, Brendan has been conditioned to get up from his seat every time he hears the school bell ring. Brendan was sitting at McDonalds eating with friends, when a loud sound similar to the school bell rang from the kitchen. Without even thinking, Brendan jumped out of his seat at McDonalds.

One parrot species that feeds on large seeds nests is in the same tree as a parakeet that feeds on small seeds. How are the birds able to coexist?

Step-by-step answer

P Answered by PhD

One parrot species that feeds on large seeds nests is in the same tree as a parakeet that feeds on small seeds, they occupy different niches.

Biology

Which is most likely to help an introduced species become invasive? a low reproductive rate big difference between original and new habitats a strong predator in new habitat great tolerance to a wide range of conditions

Step-by-step answer

P Answered by PhD

Explanation: with a great tolerance to a wide range of conditions the species would adapt and thrive which would allow it to reproduce and have all it needs to survive, grow, and take over.

Biology

Which could be the location where water emerges from the surface as a spring? 1 2 3 4

Step-by-step answer

P Answered by PhD

A spring is a natural discharge point of subterranean water at the surface of the ground or directly into the bed of a stream, lake, or sea. Water that emerges at the surface without a perceptible current is called a seep. Wells are holes excavated to bring water and other underground fluids to the surface.
