By dating fossils of pollen and beetles, which returned after an Ice Age glacier left an area, it is possible to establish an ap

proximate date when a warmer climate developed. In one glacial area, it appears from the insect record that a warm climate developed immediately after the melting of the glacier. From the pollen record, however, it appears that the warm climate did not develop until long after the glacier disappeared.
Each one of the following, if true, helps to explain the apparent discrepancy EXCEPT:

(A) Cold-weather beetle fossils can be mistaken for those of beetles that live in warm climates.

(B) Warm-weather plants cannot establish themselves as quickly as can beetles in a new environment.

(C) Beetles can survive in a relatively barren postglacial area by scavenging.

(D) Since planes spread unevenly in a new climate, researchers can mistake gaps in the pollen record as evidence of no new overall growth.

(E) Beetles are among the oldest insect species and are much older than many warm-weather plants.

Answer:

A). Continental volcanic arc

Explanation:

As per the question, the phrase '<u>continental volcanic arc' does not fit the pattern</u> as it is 'formed through the reduction of the oceanic plate under the continental plate.' While the other three 'continental rise,' 'continental slope,' and 'continental shelf' together contribute to make the 'continental margin.' It is the area that covers the boundary of the continental crust that contains mostly floating materials with three different portions with distinct depths at the verge of the rise, slope, and shelf levels. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.

How does tripling the side lengths of a right triangle affect its area
lidiya [134]
Well if you are adding sides to something then that makes that object HAVE to go bigger. That will affect the area. So making it bigger by forcing more sides onto a object.This way making you area getting bigger. Hope that helped. :) :) :) :).

Which of the following statements is true?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

The true statement is - B. The rock cycle is powered by the movement of tectonic plates.

Almost all rocks on our planet came to existence because of the tectonic activity. The movement of the tectonic plates is enabling the magma from the mantle layer to come to the surface, cool off, and create new layers of rocks. On the other hand, the same process, where there's subdustion zones, is moving the existing rocks down into the mantle layer where they are ''recycled'' in way, and this process is continuing to happen all the time.

What main process do all volcanoes have in common, regardless of the specific ways they form?
Leto [7]

Answer:

raising magma

Explanation:

The volcanoes are natural features that are a result of the geologic processes. They form alongside all types of plate boundaries, though they are most commonly found along the subduction zones. Some of the volcanoes actually form in the middle of the tectonic plates, and they are a result of the hot spots. Whichever the way it is, all volcanoes have one common characteristic, the rising magma. The raising magma is actually what makes up the shape of the volcanoes. The magma can come in several different ways, depending on its composition, which in turn results in a particular type of eruption. The magma that cools off, be it on the surface in the form of lava flows, or deeper into the ground, creates igneous rocks, or practically new crust.
