A subduction zone is where one tectonic plate is sliding under another one. It is not usually a continuous smooth motion, but an intermittent cycle of building pressure of one plate against the other and then a "slip" or movement that relieves the pressure by moving the plates. This movement is called an earthquake.<span />

Based on the weather map above, which statement is true based on the weather map?
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

A warm front is moving towards South Carolina bringing rainy conditions

Explanation:

From this weather map, we can see that South Carolina will soon be under the influence of a warm front. The warm front is moving towards this state, and it is coming from southeastern direction, thus it has been formed over warm waters. Because it has been formed over warm waters, this front is warm and very moist which will result in lot of rainfall once it comes upon a natural barrier to cause condensation, and the Appalachian Mountains will do just that, thus South Carolina will receive a lot of rainfall.
