Answer:

Sample Response: First, I wrote each ratio as a fraction. Then I found a common denominator of 20. The fraction 4/10 is 8/20. Comparing numerators, 8 is less than 12, so the ratio 4:10 is smaller.

Explanation:

The given information is expressed in ratio. However, a ratio is basically a fraction. So, 4:10 is just equal to 4/10 or 2/5 in simplified terms. Similarly, 12:20 is just equal to 12/20 or 6/5 in simplified terms. The smaller ratio is 2/5 because the numerator is less than the denominator. So, it follows that the answer is less than 1. The other ratio has a much greater numerator. So, we would expect that that would be greater than 1.

Along which type of boundary would you most likely find a volcanic mountain range?
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

c) A subduction boundary

Explanation:

The subduction zones occur at places where two plates form a convergent plate boundary, and one of the plates is subducting below the other plate. As one of the plate is moving below the other plate, there's lot of stress and adjustments going in the crust, resulting in numerous cracks all along the plate boundary. The magma from the astenosphere manages to get up and comes out on the surface. Some of the magma will not be able to reach out of the water, while some will be able to, and the ones that manage to get above the water are creating volcanic islands. As this is happening all along the boundary, there will be a chain of lot of volcanic islands, but also volcanoes rising on the land as well, which will create volcanic mountain ranges as well. We can see this perfectly well at the ''Ring of Fire'', as we have lot of volcanic islands, and lot of volcanic mountain ranges in close proximity to the subduction zones.
