I pulled this off the internet. Maybe this can help.


At divergent<span> plate boundaries, two </span>lithospheric<span> plates move apart, and new plate (and crust) are created at the boundary. The new crust is created volcanically. This process always produces ocean crust and thus </span>oceanic<span> plate. Thus </span>divergent <span>boundaries ultimately become mid-ocean ridges.</span>

A transform boundary occurs where plates slide against each other. <br> a. True<br> b. False
STatiana [176]

The correct answer is - True.

The transform boundaries of the tectonic plates are boundaries where two tectonic plates are sliding against each other. As they do that, they do create geological activity around the boundary, and earthquakes are a common occurrence. Another trademark of these boundaries are the faults, that stretch for several km in a linear manner, usually parallel to the boundary itself. Most of these faults are located in the ocean basins and they are connecting the offsets of the mid-ocean ridges, but they can also be found on land, like it is the case in California.

HELP!!! 50 POINTS What if the United States, Mexico, and Canada took the EU's example and joined to form a North American Union?
Serggg [28]

Answer:

A North American Union, by EU's example, would mean that the US, Canada, and Mexico will function as one in many ways. The borders will be open, both for economic actions and for free movement of people. While this may seem good at first sight, it will actually cause some major problems as well. The US and Canada will face a major population increase in a very short period of time. The people from Mexico will rush to move into these two countries because of better living conditions and more job opportunities, which in turn will cause massive depopulation in Mexico. On one side, Mexico will face major economic problems because of a sharp decline in its labor force, while on another side, the people in the US and Canada will face problems because there will be tens of millions of new laborers that will offer their services for lower wages. This will lead to tens of millions of people losing their jobs or not being able to find j
