Answer:

e. Transform fault

Explanation:

The San Andreas tectonic feature is of transform fault type. This basically means that we have in question a fault that has been formed at or near a transform plate boundary. In this case, it is the transform plate boundary between the North American tectonic plate and the Juan de Fuca tectnic plate. It has to be noticed though that Juan de Fuca is actually not a single plate anymore, but instead it has cracked into three smaller parts, with the part being nearby San Andreas making a transform plate boundary with the North American plate. In this type of boundary, the plates slide past each other, but they still manage to create a lot of tension around the boundary, resulting in cracks in the crust, or rather faults. The faults are parallel with the boundary, and can vary a lot in width and depth, and one of the best examples in the world for this type of fault is San Andreas in California.

Mariana [72]

Answer:

A. Temperatures have generally increased over the past 20,000 years.

C. The most recent ten thousand years and 120,000-130,000 years ago were generally warmer than the time interval between them.

Explanation:

Looking at the far right of the graph, one can see that the temperatures have been steadily rising until the graph ends. The time period there is the last 20,000 years until present so it can be said that temperatures have increased for the past 20,000 years.

Also looking again one can see that apart from the past 10,000 years, the last time temperatures were quite high was 120,000 - 130,000 years ago and the period in-between was not as warm.

Advantages of global warming when occurring as result primarily<br>of human activity<br>​
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Global warming can lead to more drought-resistant crops, increase the growth of some crops and improve the climate of countries with extreme climates.​

Explanation:

Global warming is one of the great villains of modern society, as it is the main precursor of climate change that causes so much damage to living beings. However, some researches prove that global warming has had some advantages, which even not justifying its existence, should be disclosed.

Global warming, caused by the emission of greenhouse gases released by human activities, allows the earth's temperatures to rise. This allows some crops made up of plants that need high temperature to develop better, to grow faster. Furthermore, these plantations can develop resistance to drought and high temperature.

In addition, the increase in global temperature can help countries that suffer from extreme cold during winter such as Russia, Norway, Tajikistan, Canada, among others.
