Explanation:
Earthquakes shake and volcanoes erupt. Sections of the crust are on the move. Mountains push up and wear down. These and many other processes contribute to the rock cycle, which makes and changes rocks on or below the Earth's surface.
Grids, and variables are used to find a coordinate.
Where is the map my friend..
Thanks!
Answer:
If you look at the intersection of 0 degrees latitude (known as the Equator) and 0 degrees longitude (known as the Prime Meridian) on a map, you will see that the confluence falls in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, in the Gulf of Guinea off the coast of western Africa.
Explanation:
The western part of Canada falls into the territory of the province of British Columbia. This region is dominated by mountain ranges. The largest mountain ranges are the Canadian Rockies, Coast Mountains, Cassiar Mountains, and Columbia Mountains. All of these mountain ranges stretch roughly in a north-south direction.
The reason why this region is dominated by mountains is the geologic activity. The Pacific plate is subducting under the North American plate in this area. The subduction cause the land near the plate boundary to lift up, thus over time these mountains were formed. The process though is not over, as the subduction is still taking place and will for the foreseeable future, thus these mountain ranges should continue to grow and become even more dominant land features.
