Answer: Option C: 66 cm more

Explanation: We know that the actual rate is 11 cm per year, if this rate is doubled, then the new rate is 11*2 cm per year = 22cm per year.

Now, if in one year the plate grows 22 cm, then in 3 years the plate will grow 3 times 22 cm, this is:

22cm*3 = 66cm

Then the right answer is C, 66 cm more.

Location A receives
Vlad1618 [11]

Location A receives more rainfall than Location B due to the rain shadow effect.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • Rain shadow effect is caused due to the presence of mountains.
  • A rain shadow area is an area of land that has been forced to become dry, devoid of any vegetation growth due to the blockage of precipitation by mountains. These rain shadow areas will have a dry climate.
  • The other side of the mountain would receive plenty of precipitation and therefore would be flourished with plant growth. These areas will have a cool and wet climate.
  • In this case, Location A is on the other side of the mountain and so receives more rainfall or precipitation. Meanwhile, Location B is on the rain shadow region and so receives less rainfall.
