When scientists plotted the points of normal and reversed polarity on a seafloor map the type of pattern that did they discover in the magnetic polarity is option A: stripes of normal and reversed polarity.

<h3>What do you mean by Reversed Polarity?</h3>

The presence of reverse magnetic polarity found in the opposite sides that is south and northern parts of the ridges is due to the magnetic properties of the magma which get aligned to the earth's magnetic fields.  

Magnetism on the seafloor leads to ridges having reversed and normal polarity. These ridges often alternate. The reverse polarities and old and new sea floors are found in association to the spreading of magma in the opposite direction of the ridges.

The first ridge to the right will have a normal polarity. The next ridge will be reversed and this trend will then repeat till the end.

Therefore, correct option is A.

Why does Ladakh get scanty rainfall
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

The height of the mountain ranges in Ladakh region prevent the cold desert from the crossing of the clouds, that's why there is low rainfall in Ladakh.

Explanation:

The Indian cold desert Ladakh is situated at high elevation. The desert is surrounded by the heights of mountain ranges. The area has very less humidity and the desert is marked by extreme aridity. The great Karakoram ranges, Himalayan mountains and Zanskar ranges are preventing the cloud crossing from the area. This is the major cause of less rainfall in Ladakh region. The desert recieves only 2 inches annually which is very low and cause scarcity of water in the area and among locals. The desert is situated at a great height covered with supreme mountains, this cause extreme cold in the region and low rainfall.

When an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate, the continental plate usually slides up and over the denser oceanic pla
KengaRu [80]
The correct answer is B Subduction. Subduction is the process by which an oceanic plate gets dragged under another plate and is eventually destroyed in the mantle. Subduction occurs at convergent margins where two oceanic plates collide or an oceanic and Continental plate collide. Oceanic crust is made of mainly of silica and magnesium which is heavier or denser than continental crust which is composed mainly of silica and aluminium.
The subducting plate melts producing excess magma giving rise to volcanoes along these margins.
