SashulF [63]2 years ago
5 0

Answer: The above statement is True

Explanation: There is frequent collision between the Pacific and the North American plate. Both the plate forms a transform boundary as well as a convergent boundary depending on the direction of motion of the plates.

The Pacific plate gets subducted under the north American plate in its east and south-eastern side, but towards the center of the eastern side, the Pacific plate experiences a transform boundary with the North American plate. The famous San Andreas fault is located there.

The Canadian west coast is located near to the ring of fire and this areas experiences frequent earthquakes. So we can conclude that the Canadian west coast is an active margin.

How does a representative democracy differ from an oligarchy? check all that apply .
Finger [1]

Answer:

Difference between Representative Democracy

Explanation:

Representative Democracy is a government system, in which a representative  group of people elected (chosen) by general public - are in power.

a) People elect small group in power, b) Those few <u>public elected</u> people  directly exercise power, c) Government positions are open to many people, d) Anyone can run for office - whosoever chosen by public comes in power : are characteristics of representative democracy, not of oligarchy

Oligarchy is a type of government, in which a small group of powerful people (powerful due to wealth, education, religion, military link etc)  - are in power & the power tends to stay with them.

Oligarchy is run by a small group of powerful people, <u>not elected</u> by general public. Only those few powerful people exercise direct or indirect power - as they are not public representatives. Government positions are not open to many people, anyone cant run office, as the power tends to stay accumulated in that powerful group's hands.
