Ocean ridges are formed by divergent boundaries.

Option-D

<u>Explanation:</u>

Ocean Ridges are underwater physical features formed along the two divergent boundaries. When two divergent boundaries are adjacent to each other and they keep diverging, ocean ridges form as a result of increasing gap between them which ultimately results in the volcanic eruption which later spreads, cools down and forms as ridges under the oceanic surface while repetition of this process leads to the formation of large oceanic ridges.

It is often noticed that, the age of the ridges keeps on increasing as one moves from top to bottom.

Answer:

A mid-ocean ridge

Explanation:

A mid-ocean ridge or mid-oceanic ridge is an underwater mountain range, formed by plate tectonics. This uplifting of the ocean floor occurs when convection currents rise in the mantle beneath the oceanic crust and create magma where two tectonic plates meet at a divergent boundary.

Compare 4:10 and 12:20 using fractions. Which ratio is smaller? How do you know?
djverab [1.8K]
The given information is expressed in ratio. However, a ratio is basically a fraction. So, 4:10 is just equal to 4/10 or 2/5 in simplified terms. Similarly, 12:20 is just equal to 12/20 or 6/5 in simplified terms. The smaller ratio is 2/5 because the numerator is less than the denominator. So, it follows that the answer is less than 1. The other ratio has a much greater numerator. So, we would expect that that would be greater than 1.

sweet [91]

Answer: D

Explanation:

By 2100 Global warming would have more than double as the release of chlorofluorocarbons into the atmosphere does not seem to abase. The industrial zone of Pittsburgh, US contributes a lot to the increase in the atmospheric temperatures of the surrounding areas. The continually high demand for wood charcoal by pharmaceutical companies, households, and food vendors in developing countries would mean more deforestation which consequently expose the earth's crust to high insolatoon from the solar system.

However, the replacement of natural landscape by human landscape is on the rise. In the UAE, Dubai alone has u number of construction projects, from skyscrappers to artificial islands. More trees would be removed to make these construction projects possible. The consequent effect of all these cannot be anything other than more warming of the globe.
