Answer: B.

The Moon's Mantle is too cold to move easily, and has no convection and no active tectonic plate motions, due to the Moon's smaller size and colder temperature than the Earth.

<u>Answer:</u>

The characteristic of plate tectonics is only true about the Earth and not the Moon.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The Moon is way too smaller than the Earth and has a comparatively cooler mantle.
  • The size of the Moon limits the possibility of the existence of tectonic plates. Moreover, a cooler mantle doesn't favour the generation of convection currents that are responsible for the tectonic activities.
  • The moonquakes (like that of earthquakes on Earth) are believed to be caused by the Earth's gravitational influence over the moon and the tidal activities on Earth, not by tectonic activities.

What was one of the biggest challenges faced by the Jewish settlers who arrived in Israel beginning in the 1880s?
gogolik [260]

The answer is, introducing modern agricultural methods to an ancient culture.

The number of Jews migrating to the land of Israel rose significantly between the 13th and 19th centuries, mainly due to a general decline in the status of Jews across Europe. The Jewish settlers had two types of agriculture methods which were the cooperative agricultural community and the collective community method.

cooperative agricultural community was where members worked on individual farms of generally equal size and sometimes pooled labor as well as machinery and marketing, while the collective community agriculture method land and even tools and clothing were owned jointly, and all decisions were made by the community these methods were different from the ancient culture agriculture done in Israel.
