Answer:
c) subduction boundaries
Explanation:
The subduction boundaries, also known as convergent boundaries, are the ones that most commonly give rise to intermediate (andesitic) volcanoes. These volcanoes are know by the term strato volcanoes. The magma from these volcanoes has a relatively high silica content, making it highly viscous. That also means that the magma manages to trap the gasses in it, thus increasing the gas content in it. This results in very explosive and effusive eruptions, because as the magma moves toward the surface, the pressure and temperature significantly change, causing the trapped gasses to explode. This type of magma comes as lava flow, but because it is highly viscous, it only manages to come out on a very small area around its source.

how were you going to solve the problem brought by earthquakes in South Africa
Ensuring the safety of the people after the earthquake struck would be the main priority. Make sure there would be no occurrence of tsunami before deploying rescue operations. I would immediately deploy all of the necessary health equipment and personnel to the affected areas. Rescue operations must be started also to save those who were trapped by debris. Also the removal of live electrical wires is really important.

Which material most likely would form an aquiclude
A.Gravel
B.Sandstone
C.clay
D.sand
Answer:
C. Clay
Explanation:
Answer:
Clay is more likely to form an aquiclude.
Explanation:
The zone that acts as a resistance to the flow of ground water from an aquifer to the other aquifer is called as the aquitard. Aquiclude or aquifuge is a wholly impermeable aquitard that permits no ground water from between the aquifers.
In general, while the highly fractured rocks, gravel and sandy materials makes good aquifer, the clay, poorly settled sediments, and non-fractured rocks often forms aquitard.

According to the table, which city is LEAST LIKELY to have a tropical wet/dry climate?
Albuquerque
Atlanta
Denver
Miami
Answer:
Denver
Explanation:
Denver, Colorado, is the city from the list that has the least chances to have a tropical wet/dry climate. This city actually has summers that are considered as mild, with the temperatures being in the the lower 30's C degrees, while the night temperatures drop to twice less than the daily temperatures. The winters on the other hand, are cold and snowy, which is not a trait of the tropical climates, but instead of the continental climate types, with the temperatures regularly being bellow the freezing point throughout the winter months.
The volcanoes of many Hawaiian island are extinct because
a) the subduction processes that formed the volcanoes have ceased.
b) the Pacific plate has carried the volcanoes away from the hot spot that formed them
c) the volcanoes are now below sea level.
d) the hot spot that formed them has moved.
Answer:
b) the Pacific plate has carried the volcanoes away from the hot spot that formed them
Explanation:
The Hawaiian islands all have volcanic origin. Some are not active, while some still are. All of these islands have been active volcanoes at one point of time, and they have been created by a hot spot that lies beneath the Pacific plate. The hot spot has such a power that it actually manages to break through the central part of the plate where its crust is the strongest and densest. As the magma manages to come out above the water, it manages to create volcanic islands. The Pacific plate though is moving, it is not static, so it drags the volcanic islands away from the hot spot, causing their extinguishing. As those islands are moved away, the hot spot creates new volcanic islands, and the process constantly continuous, resulting in a volcanic island chain.
What is the specific type of plate boundary for Papua New Guinea? (transform, divergent, convergent?)
Answer: Convergent plate boundary
Explanation: Convergent plate boundary is a location on earth where two tectonic plates are moving towards each other and the denser plate slides beneath the less dense plate (this process is known as subduction). The collision of these plates results in earthquakes, volcanoes, and formation of mountains.
There are three types of convergent plate boundary
1. Oceanic- Continental Convergence
2. Continental- Continental Convergence
3. Oceanic- Oceanic Convergence
In the case, of Papua New Guinea, it was formed by the collision of the very large northward moving Indo-Australian tectonic plate with the even large westward moving Pacific plate.

How many cubes with side lengths of 1/3 cm does it take to fill the prism?
Answer:
we need 48 cubes to fill the prism
Explanation:
To know how many cubes does it take to fill the prism we are going to do the following:
1. Calculate the volume of the prism:
Volume = Width x Lenght x Height
Volume = 1cm x 2 2/3 xm x 2/3 cm = 16/9 cm^3
2. Calculate the volume of the cube:
Volume cube = (1/3 cm)^3 = 1/27 cm^3
3. Now Number Cubes = Volume prism / volume cube
Volume prism / volume cube = (16/9) / (1/27) = 48
Then we need 48 cubes to fill the prism.

{Solid waste awareness}
(1)What influences our purchasing choices?
(2)Why is there so much waste?
(3)What are the majore influences on your consumer habits?
(4)How can we change our purchasing habits to reduce solid waste??
Answer:
1. The thing that influences our purchasing choice is price for the lower class and sometimes quality for the upper class. Something they both care about is quantity which brings usually less quality to the product so it usually appeals less to the upper class.
2. The reason there's so much waste is because in some public places their are little choice in which to through away your food and other waste. Also the older generation cares less about their waste choice because they will only be on the planet for a short time longer.

Which of the following factors causes an explosive eruption from a composite volcano?
A. Mantle plumes
B. Large buildup of pressure from gases
C. Pyroclastic flows
D. Water accumulated in the vent
Answer:
B. Large buildup of pressure from gases
Explanation:
The composite volcanoes are volcanoes that are characterized with felsic magma. This type of magma is highly to intermediately viscous. The silica content is high. This results in much denser magma that manages to trap the gases in it instead of them living freely into the atmosphere. As the magma comes toward the surface, the temperature and pressure change significantly, so the built up gases in it manage to cause strong explosion, which in turn results in explosive and effusive eruptions of these volcanoes.

texture of shape of a mineral surface when broken
When a piece of Halite is broken, it breaks into many smaller cubes. when a mineral breaks into jagged edges. Some minerals have no planes of weakness, so they have no cleavage. Crystal Shape is the natural geometric shape of a mineral.
Hope this helps :)
The texture of a mineral surface when broken is determined by its cleavage, which produces smooth flat surfaces along planes of weakness, or fracture, which results in irregular, jagged surfaces. Close examination with a hand lens is vital for accurate identification.
The texture of the shape of a mineral surface when broken can be determined by its cleavage or fracture. Cleavage refers to the way some minerals break along certain planes of weakness to produce smooth, flat surfaces. These planes are created due to weak bonds in the mineral's structure, allowing it to split easily along them. On the other hand, fracture describes the breakage of minerals along irregular surfaces when there are no planes of weakness. This results in uneven, sometimes jagged surfaces that do not follow a predictable pattern. To accurately identify whether a mineral displays cleavage or fracture, close examination using a hand lens is often necessary, as it allows for the observation of subtle surface details that indicate the nature of the mineral's internal structure.
How can scientist locate the epicenter of an earthquake
Scientist use triangulation method to locate the epicentre of an earthquake from the data collected from Seismograph.
Explanation:
The seismic data from three different location is collected to locate the intersect point as the epicentre point to be determined. Each earthquake is recorded in seismogram in different location.
A seismogram is the output from a graph called seismograph, which is used to determine the epicentre of an earthquake. There are two waves namely P-waves or Primary waves and S-waves or secondary waves that are considered while finding the epicentre of an earthquake.
With the seismogram, P-waves appears first before S-waves, since they travel faster through three states of matter. Thus, data from seismograph is used for locating “epicentre of an earthquake”.
Answer:
-Record of waves from at least 3 seismograms are used to locate earthquakes.
-Difference inn arrival times of P and S waves give distance from seismometer to earthquake

A) The current location of rivers emptying into the ocean.
b) similar coastal rock formations.
c)similar plants growing on the continents today.
d) the locations of earthquakes and volcanoes.
Answer:
similar coastal rock formations. b)
Answer:
C) Similar plants growing on the continents today.
Explanation:
Continental drift is an important phenomenon which refers to the horizontal movements of continents. According to the German meteorologist Wegener, there was a single continent called Pangea. According to his hypothesis there were two primordial continents: "Laurasia" in the north and "Gondwana" in the south. His theory explains how the continents moved apart. This same man gave theories to about the fossils and rock formations of the drifted continents that were once together.

A mudflow that can result from a ____.
a) pyroclastic flow
b) landslide
c) pillow lava
d) lahar
Answer:
d) lahar
Explanation:
The mudflows occur mostly because because of enormous amounts of rainfall, and occasionally they occur near volcanoes. The lahar represents a violent type of mudflow. It is composed of a slurry of pyroclastic material, water and rocky debris. The material flows down from a volcano, usually along a river valley. This type of mudflow is extremely dangerous, and it manages to cause a lot of damage as there's hardly anything that can stop it or resist its force.
What are three ways in which tradition is part of everyday life in south Asia
Answer:
The Indian subcontinent forms an inverted triangle extending from the snow-bound Himalayan ranges of Asia toward the equator. Known also as South Asia, the area includes the countries of India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, and Bhutan; artistically, the Tibetan highlands also form part of the region. Stretching some 1,800 miles from north to south, and almost the same distance from west to east, the area is home to an ancient and diverse group of cultures.
India is the largest single nation of South Asia. Its currently twenty-four states exhibit a cultural diversity comparable to that seen among the nations of Europe. The Tamil region of South India has a language, script, musical tradition, dance forms, and an artistic heritage that are quite distinct from those found in, say, Punjab in the north. It is this diversity that makes the artistic traditions of India so complex and rewarding to follow.
During the third millennium B.C., spacious cities, displaying advanced town planning, were built along the plains of the Indus River. The settlers of these ancient communities traded with the contemporary civilizations of Mesopotamia and used an elegant form of pictorial writing that is yet to be deciphered. Steatite seals, delicately carved with figures of animals and occasionally of humans, testify to their creators’ artistic sensibilities. The great cities of the Indus Valley flourished for more than a thousand years.
Explanation:
Tradition in South Asia is evident in cultural and religious festivals, traditional economy and occupations, and social customs and practices, which are central to the region's way of life.
Tradition plays a significant role in everyday life in South Asia through various aspects of society. Here are three ways tradition is woven into the daily life of South Asians:
These traditions resonate through the region's socio-economic dynamics, cultural festivals, and daily social customs, shaping the unique identities of communities within South Asia.

Which statement about the focus of an earthquake is true?
a) An earthquake's focus is beneath the earthquake's epicenter
b) Along a divergent boundary, an earthquake's focus can be as much as 5000 kilometers beneath
Earth's surface.
c) Energy only travels upward from an earthquake's focus.
d) The focus is the point above the epicenter.
Answer:
a) An earthquake's focus is beneath the earthquake's epicenter
Explanation:
The earthquakes occur as a result of the adjustments that happen deep below the surface, where the crust cracks under the enormous pressure, and the gaps opened up from it are filled with other rocks. When that happens, the amount of energy that is released is enormous, casing strong vibrations that manage to reach the surface as well as cause a lot of damage. The place where the earthquake appears is called focus of the earthquake, and it is located deep below the surface. The place above it in a vertical straight line on the surface is called the epicenter. The vibrations spread around in concentric circles, being most intense near the place of origin, and weakening as they move further.
Think about the steps that have to happen before mining can begin. Which of the following steps do you think comes before the mining process starts. Select all that apply.
A Trees must be cut down to clear land.
B Roads must be built to get access to the area.
C Minerals need to be sold for profit.
D Trees need to be replanted to reclaim the land.
Answer:
A, B, and D are the correct answers.
Explanation:
Trees must be cut down to make space available for the machinery required to excavate and extract minerals from the earth, and if the trees were not cut away, this process would be difficult in the limited space.
Roads and infrastructure must also be provided to that area so that road links are available, in order for the extracted minerals to be transported to processing zones or industries or the markets so that they can be sold.
D is also a valid answer as, in order for this to be a sustainable process, we must replant trees in another area so that there is no shortage of trees and so that land is reclaimed. Trees must also be planted in the area so that fresh air is provided to the miners who work inside the mines when they come out, and not polluted air. This also reduces the risk of various lung diseases affecting the miners such as Black Lung.
Answer: A and B are correct
Explanation: You need a clear way to get to this specific area and a clear piece of land to even start mining . Also, the space needs to be cleared for machinery and roads have to be able to lead to this location for the mining.

Which of the following is/are responsible for giving a galaxy its particular shape?
A. Dark matter
B. Supermassive black holes
C. Dust and gas
D. Cosmic microwave background radiation
Answer:
The "dark matter" is responsible for giving a "galaxy its particular shape".
Explanation:
In a galaxy, it is mainly the dark matter that holds the galaxy together. A galaxy that is in motion exerts centrifugal force on the planets, stars and other material. This force tends the planets and stars to move away from the "center of the galaxy". On the other hand, the dark matter deploys gravitational force on the material present in the galaxy which holds it in its place.Answer:
A
Explanation:
