A. it is made up of rock so hot that it flows
<span>South American countries have been attempting to mirror the free market system of the United States since around 1980 (the "Washington Consensus"). This has lead to economic stagnation in these countries. In order to boost their own economies, they are now looking at the models of more productive nations whose economies are growing very rapidly and are attempting to mirror their market systems. The main countries being scrutinized are China and India, who have nationalized many of their industries/resources. This would explain the shift.</span>
Answer:
1. Applying <u>the principle of original horizontality</u> -indicates that layers were repositioned from a flat-lying orientation.
2. Magma intrudes into layers of sedimentary rock and displaces them. We can deduce that the intruded magma that crystallizes is younger than the surrounding sedimentary layers by applying <u>the principle of crosscutting relationships</u>.
3. While visiting the Grand Canyon, you are amazed by the depth of layers of sedimentary rock before you, <u>the law of superposition</u>-- is evident here where progressively younger layers have formed over time and are stacked upon each other.
4. A fault cuts through layers of limestone, sandstone, and conglomerate. The surrounding layers must be <u>older</u> than the fault.
5. A mass of granite has inclusions of surrounding sandstone. The sandstone and surrounding layers show evidence of uplift over time. The granite must be <u>younger</u> than the sand deposits.
Pacific Plate. The Pacific Plate is an oceanic tectonic plate that lies beneath the Pacific Ocean. At 103 million square kilometres (40,000,000 sq mi), it is the largest tectonic plate. The Pacific Plate contains an interior hot spot forming the Hawaiian Islands.
Answer:
analysis of magnetic and seismic patters
Explanation:
The proof for the long-doubted idea of drifting continents came in the form of analysis of magnetic and seismic patterns understanding of mountains glacial ice animal distributions analysis of magnetic and seismic patterns.
It simply means seismic and magnetic patterns which are measured through some designated machines are instrumental in the understanding of mountain glacial ice animal distribution.
