Indique o nome de 4 lagos internos de origem tectônica no norte de Moçambique​
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

Lake Amaramba, Lake Chiuta, Lake Malawi, and Lake Shirwa.

Explanation:

M o z a m b i q u e is a country located in southeastern Africa. The country is experiencing intense tectonic activity and this is due to the divergent boundary between the Nubian and Somali plates. This plate boundary has resulted in the formation of rift valleys, which in some places got filled with water, and lakes were created.

M o z a m b i q u e has most of its lakes in the northern part of the country, close to or at the border with M a l a w i. This is actually the area where the rift valley passes through, and because there are rivers as well, some parts of the rift valley have been filled with water and lakes have been created. The biggest of the four of this type is Lake Malawi, which is shared with the country of Malawii. Very close to Lake Malawi are clocated the other three lakes, Lake Amaramba, Lake Chiuta, and Lake Shirwa, all of which are very small in size.
