Answer: 1 - Convergent Continental-Continental boundary

              2 - Convergent Oceanic-Oceanic boundary

              3 - Convergent Oceanic-Continental boundary

Explanation:

When two continental plates collides, then sandwich pattern takes place, forming the great Himalaya. For example, the formation of the Himalaya due to the collision between Eurasian plate and the Indo-Australian plate.

When two oceanic plates collides, it creates a subduction zone and volcanic island arcs are created. For example, the Mariana island.

When an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate, the denser oceanic plate gets subducted beneath the less denser continental plate, forming the continental volcanic arcs. For example, the San Andes mountain.

Thus, the correct answers to the given questions are mentioned above.

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

A higher rate of concordance in monozygotic twins in comparison to dizygotic twins is a proved evidence of the contribution of the genetic constituent as monozygotic twins are genetically more identical in comparison to dizygotic twins. The monozygotic twins share all the genes in common and dizygotic twins on average share half of their genes in common.  

Thus, the concordance in monozygotic twins is more in comparison with that of dizygotic twins, which shows the contribution of genetics to this trait.
