Hawai'an volcanic islands

Hawai'an volcanic islands is not part of a convergent/subduction plate boundary.

<h3>What kind of plate boundary produces a sequence of volcanic islands?</h3>
  • convergent boundary
  • Along the convergent boundary, the new magma (molten rock) rises and may erupt violently to form volcanoes, frequently creating arcs of islands.
  • Divergent plate boundaries are created when two plates are moving apart.

<h3>Why do volcanic chains and convergent borders coexist?</h3>
  • Subduction causes melting that is partially molten.
  • Water loss in the plate causes partial melting.
  • Mantle material melts as a result and rises to the surface.

<h3>Which are the 4 types of convergent boundries?</h3>
  • Divergent Plate Boundary.
  • Convergent Plate Boundary.
  • Transform Plate Boundary.
  • Hotspot.

(This is earth science but there is no option for that)Which of the following would be most impacted by a decrease in the use of
JulijaS [17]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Decrease in burning of fossil fuels will affect carbon cycle the most. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Carbon compounds circulate within the biosphere as part of carbon cycle.  In terrestrial ecosystems Plants acquire carbon dioxide through photosynthesis and in aquatic ecosystems plankton absorb carbon dioxide.  

Dead plants bodies deposited underground for a large number of years get converted to fossil fuels and the burning of these fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

Carbon dioxide is also released into the atmosphere through processes like respiration and decomposition of dead organic matter. If burning of fossil fuels is decreased it will be the carbon cycle which will be affected the most.

Describe a positive feedback system that effects earth temperatures in your own word​
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

Positive feedback system increases temperature of the earth surface which is good in a number of ways.

Explanation: For example, due to increase in the temperature of earth surface, melting of ice occurs in the mountainous area of the world. This stored form of water is changed into liquid form and flows down through streams and used by plants and animals. But more increase in temperature causes rise of sea level which is not good for areas near the sea.

How do you adjust the focus of the microscope when observing organisms at high magnifications?
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The microscope is an instrument used for the visualization of the cell and its other component. Different types of microscope are compound microscope, electron microscope and binocular microscope.

The adjustment of the slide is important to visualize the focused object. A proper source of light is required to focus the image. At high magnification, the fine focus control is used for the adjustment. At 100 X the oil is used to visualize the object.

Can humans live underwater what are some things to consider
timurjin [86]

Underwater living faces many of the same life support challenges as living in space. ... But in the future, underwater habitats might provide their own oxygen with artificial gill technology to extract dissolved air from the sea water

Since humans do not have gills, we cannot extract oxygen from water. Some marine mammals, like whales and dolphins, do live in water, but they don't breathe it. They have developed a mechanism to hold their breath for long periods of time underwater.

To put these depths into perspective, three American football fields laid end to end would measure 900 feet (274.32 m) long — less than the distance these divers reached underwater. Most recreational scuba divers only dive as deep as 130 feet (40 meters), according to the Professional Association of Diving Instructors.
