Appalachian: A. Two continents colliding.
The Appalachian mountain range is an ancient example of a collision between two continental plates. Both plates have low density and little subduction occurs between them.
North American Cordillera: B. Terrane accretion
These form when two continents that collided bonded so tight that it forms a permanent land mass. If the continents would pull away from each other, the terrane stays intact.
Aleutian plate: D. Oceanic convergence
This is a type of convergence where one plate subducts beneath another plate. Between the two, the older plate is usually the one that subducts because it is usually more dense.
Andes mountain range: C. An oceanic plate and continental plate colliding.
In the collision between an oceanic and continental plate, the thinner and more dense oceanic plate subducts under the continental plate. The Andes mountain range was formed by the subduction of the Nazca Plate beneath the South american Plate.
Acidophiles is the correct
Answer: C) They can contain contaminants that can enter the air during storms or high winds.
Explanation: A is wrong because I got it wrong (Sorry, can't give much explanation there).
B is wrong because water contamination does not directly relate to respiratory health.
D is wrong because fertilizers can impact respiratory health (Explanation seems lack-luster, but I feel like this is common sense).
Hope this helps :)
Function of Cytoplasm. The jelly-like fluid that fills a cell is called cytoplasm. It is made up of mostly water and salt. Cytoplasm is present within the cell membrane of all cell types and contains all organelles and cell parts. ... It helps to fill out the cell and keeps organelles in their place.
