Both homes and farms tend to be larger.
When two oceanic plates collide, the younger of the two plates (because it is less dense)* will ride over the edge of the older plate. *(Oceanic plates grow more dense as they cool or move further away from the Mid-Ocean Ridge). The older, heavier plate bends and plunges steeply through the athenosphere, and descending into the earth, ir forms a trench that can be as much as 70 miles wide, more than a thousands miles long, and several miles deep.
Answer:
B. lose any oil they might contain because metamorphic conditions destroy the organic molecules present.
Explanation:
Sediments in a subsiding sedimentary basin do the following:
1. lose any oil they might contain because metamorphic conditions destroy the organic molecules present.
2. undergo burial metamorphism when they reach depths greater than 8 to 15 km
3. experience increased pressure and temperature
4. undergo diagenetic changes when they're at shallow depth.
