Question
Mid-ocean ridges are steeper and less broad than rises because:
Group of answer choices
A) the rocks of the mid-ocean ridges are composed of more dense mineral than the rises.
B) the rocks of the mid-ocean ridges are composed of less dense mineral than the rises.
C) The seafloor spreading rate of ridges are faster than rises causing the oceanic crust to subside closer to the ridge axis.
D) The seafloor spreading rate of ridges are slower than rises causing the oceanic crust to subside closer to the ridge axis.
E) Every ridge is composed of continental crust.
Answer:
The correct answer is D.
Explanation:
In volcanic regions, as the molten magma flows out onto the seafloor creating new beds, the faster it flows, the less steep the mid-ocean ridge is. If however, it is slow-flowing, then oceanic lithosphere formed cool closer to the ridge axis thus making it very steep.

Answer:
Question 1: getting there
Mars- between 150 and 300 days depending on where mars is in relation to the earth, the speed of the launch, and the exact travel path that will be taken
Uranus- about 9 and a half years
Question 2: weather
Mars- the atmosphere is completely thin, and an extremely cold planet, with an average temperature of around -80°
Uranus- has very strange seasons due to its tilt, has a surface temperature of about -300°F, strong winds, and sometimes clouds made up of methane ice crystals
Question 3: clothing
Mars and Uranus- both mars and Uranus are unsuitable for humans, you would most definetly need a full body space suit such as the Z-2 Spacesuit created by NASA
you can answer the rest based off imagination and Google for facts
The appropriate answer is A. Photosynthesis is tied to the carbon cycle because it is the process by which plants use carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to make food. The carbon cycle is essentially the movement of carbon between the biosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere, and lithosphere. Photosynthesis occurs as an interaction between the atmosphere and the biosphere.
Answer:
a volcanic mountain is formed by the oceanic plate going under the continental plate causing the formations of trenches and mountains, the friction caused by the oceanic plate sliding under the continental plate makes enough heat for it to become volcanic.
