<u>Answer:</u>

The difference between the size of the Hawaiin volcanoes and the gigantic Martian volcanoes tell us that the role of plate motion in shaping the Martian surface would not have been as significant as it has been on Earth.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The Earth's surface is substantially a result of the motion of the plates. But that doesn't appear to be the case with Mars.
  • The huge volcanic vents are evident that there must have been tremendous lava flowing and forming most of the Martian surface.

Answer:

Here, this can be a starting point for you! :) I hope this helps you out, have a nice rest of your day :)

Trench: very deep, elongated cavity bordering a continent or an island arc; it forms when one tectonic plate slides beneath another. Ridge: underwater mountain range that criss-crosses the oceans and is formed by rising magma in a zone where two plates are moving apart.

What are 2 benefits of using Carbon-14 in dating the age of objects? <br><br>​
Fed [463]

Explanation:

The use of carbon-14 has some advantages over other radioisotopes and also over other dating methods, for example:

- Dating fossils, since all living carbon-based organisms acquire carbon by photosynthesis or consumption of plants and animals, all living things can be dated with this method.

- It is not limited, this is a way of saying that its effective range is very wide, it allows dating to a maximum of 62,000 years

- It has oceanographic and climatic utilities

- Dating of aquifers, carbon-14 decomposes constantly even underwater
