Answer: Novaya Zemlya.

Explanation:

Novaya Zemlya is located in an archipelago in the Russian Arctic, consisting of several small islands and two main ones; Séverny Island and Yuzhny Island. A nuclear testing site was established in 1954 that remained active until 1990. It is considered that at least 224 nuclear tests were carried out and the most powerful hydrogen bomb ever launched was tested there; The Tsar Bomb.

Due to these experiments the local fauna, such as the polar bear and the arctic fox, has been affected by radioactivity and its genes have mutated.

I hope this information can help you.

Why is asthenosphere so important to the theory of plate tectonics?
lora16 [44]

  The astenosphere plays a key role in the plate tectonics theory because it is the one that provides the high temperatures, high pressure, and magma, that are the ones responsible for cracking up the crust on the surface.

  The astenosphere, with the ability to crack the crust on the surface of the planet is creating the continental and oceanic tectonic plates, and it also provides the push force from bellow so that they can move across the globe and thus be creating the landscape on the planet.
