As the two plates collide,the denserr oceanic plate will subduct under the less dense continential plate, causing the continential plate to arch up and form a mountain range.
Let's look into it one by one:
A. An underwater mountain range will will run along the boundary on the oceanic plate. - This is false.
As the oceanic plate subducts under the continential plate, there is no chance for the denser material to accumulate while subducting. What would be find instead is ocean trench.
B. A mountain range will form in the middle of the continental plate. - This is false.
Although pressure will be applied and there would be stress accumulating on the continential plate, the middle is very unlikely to be affected.
C. A mountain range will run along the boundary on the continental plate. - This is true.
As the subduction happens, the continential plate will accumulate as it is less dense. The rock would fold up to form mountain ranges. For example, Rockies is one off the mountain range along the plate.
D. A chain of islands will form along the boundary of the oceanic plate. - This is false.
Similarly to A. it is not possible for the plate to accumulate when it slides under the other plate.
Therefore the answer is C. A mountain range will run along the boundary on the continental plate.
Hope it helps!
Human activities such as mining, pollution, minerals processing, landfills, etc have an effect on the flow pattern.
<h3>
Effect of pollution</h3>
It should be noted that pollution is usually difficult to control because it is often the result of human infrastructure around a river.
For example, sewage and effluent are discharged into rivers in some areas and this can lower the pH of the water, and hence affect the organisms.
Also, human activities such as mining, pollution, minerals processing, landfills, impact negatively on the quality of water and the flow pattern in the upper reaches of the blood river in Limpopo.
