Answer:
What would be the expected result of the experiment?
For the drawing of the map part, the scientific will find that effectively, a very large number of volcanoes are located near the meeting points of tectonic plates. The volcanoes that aren't now at the edge of the plate were most probably at the moment of their formation, and were moved away by the movement of the plate.
But I doubt the scientist would be able to identify many new volcanoes, because the creation of a volcano isn't something happening overnight.
How would you interpret the results if the scientist observes no new volcanic activity?
I would say that does NOT invalidate the theory because the observation period is extremely short. 10 years is an insignificant amount of time geologically speaking... the study would have to be conducted over at least 1,000 years to maybe have some results at all. Just imagine how many volcanoes there would be if a new one was created every 10 years along the side of a tectonic plate.
Basically, there is a root. This root makes cells. Those cells die and multiply making your nail longer.
During an emergency what you would usually want to do is a so-called threat and hazard analysis - C.
You would do this because you would want to observe and note which is a source of threat for you in a certain emergency situation. You would also to this to observe the possible hazards of doing a certain action/certain actions.
