Answer:

A landforms that forms at the plate boundary as a result of divergent stress or when two tectonic plates move apart is a mid-ocean ridge or a continental rift valley.

Explanation:

There are three types of plate movements: converging, transforming and diverging.

Converging plates either push together, forming mountains or subduct, one sliding under the other.

Transform boundaries are plates that push on each other as they slide in opposite directions  

Divergent plates move away from each other, creating a rift in the brittle rock of the lithosphere. Divergent boundaries may occur on the ocean floor or  on land. Divergent movement in ocean forms a mid-ocean ridge while a continental rift valley if it occurs on land.These geological processes of divergent boundaries shape the continents and oceans over time by forming new crust and new oceans.

Ocean ridges would form. Mid-ocean ridges result from volcanic swelling and eruptions along the divergent boundary.

Which are potential sources of error in the experiment? Check all that apply. estimating temperature to the nearest tenth of a d
Dafna11 [192]

The correct option are as follows:

estimating temperature to the nearest tenth of a degree

estimating the mass of the sample to the nearest tenth of a gram

the position of the cups of sand and water under the heat lamp

<u>Explanation:</u>

Error is an uncertainty or the amount of deviation in a physical quantity. There may arise some deviance while measuring physical quantity due to approximation.

Instrumental, environmental, procedural, and human are some of the common sources of error. The error can be classified into two types:

i) Random error

ii) Systematic error

Types of error are determined based on the deviation in the result. While observing the temperature of something, the temperature should be noted to the nearest tenth of a degree. In similar way, the mass of the sample should be estimated to the nearest tenth of a gram.

Size, shape, and position of grains that make up a rock
lutik1710 [3]

The right answer is The texture.

In petrography, the texture (sometimes called structure) of a rock characterizes the arrangement of the crystals between them at the scale of the sample, the thin slice or even on a finer scale.

Texture is a characteristic determined by the size, shape and disposition of minerals in a rock that is observed at the microscopic scale. It allows to build the relationship between these characteristics and the conditions of formation of a rock (especially in the case of magmatic rocks, the rate of cooling).
