The correct answer is - intraplate volcanism.
The Hawaiian Islands are volcanic islands, thus islands that have been created by volcanic activity. Unlike most of the volcanic islands, or most of the volcanoes, they are not related to any type of volcanism asociated with plate boundary. These islands are in fact associated with intraplate volcanism.
The intraplate volcanism, unlike the other volcanisms, appears inside the plate, not on the boundary of it. The other, more common name, used for this volcanism is hot spot volcanism. This type of volcanic activity appears on places where there's a hot spot, so even though the plate is on top of it, it manages to penetrate through it, and create volcanoes on the surface.
The order in which the changes taking place in tectonic activity in the Martinsburg and Massanutten formation is:
- Erosion of the taconian mountains providing abundant carbonate sediment of the Massanutten formation.
- Taconian mountain building and the influx of siliciclastic sediment of the upper Martinsburg formation.
- Tectonic quiescence and the deposition of lime mud on carbonate platform of the upper Martinburg formation.
- Tectonic quiescence & the deposition of lime mud on carbonate platform of the Helderberg formation.
<h3>What order did the tectonic events happen?</h3>
As a result of the erosion of the teconian mountains, there was abundant carbonate for the Massanutten formation.
Some time later, a process of tectonic quiescence led to a deposition of lime mud on the upper Martinsburg formation, and then the Heiderberg formation.

Answer:
A. flood damage is extremely costly due to homes and businesses being built on the flood plain
Explanation:
Floodplain is a waterfront region that is flooded during floods. These areas are very suitable for agriculture due to soil fertility. Such areas develop over the gutter of a valley filled with alluvial soil, over which meanders meander due to the low slope of the river course, which, in flood times, spills over its original bank and floods the adjacent region.
Flooding in this region is natural, but because of the increase in population and the need for expansion of cities, many houses and industries needed to be built in the plains of inunction. In this case, the floods cause a major problem because they cause damage to homes and industries. These losses cause often incalculable economic and emotional damage.
It isn't really a country but it is located in Egypt around 153 miles southwest of the center of Cairo.

I don’t know what else to but but that’s the answer lol
