<u>Answer:</u>

Pacific Ocean formed by the same processes that cause the  current geologic activity  and Beautiful mountains are the reasons why many people live on the Ring of Fire.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The volcanic islands around the Pacific ocean have formed on the tectonic plates due to various geologic processes. These islands have highly fertile soil and geothermic energy from the underground steam caused due to the volcanic magma can also be harnessed to obtain an economic advantage. There's also an incredible scenery with various volcanic mountains and hot geysers that attract hundreds of tourists from all over the world. This provides various job opportunities in the field of tourism.

A fault in which the hanging wall moves down relative to the footwall is a
ikadub [295]

The faults in which the hanging wall moves down relative to the footwall is called normal fault.

Explanation:

There are several types of faults based on their characteristics. One of them is the normal fault, or normal dip-slip fault. The main characteristic of this fault is that its hanging wall moves down relative to the footwall, while the footwall tends to move up relative to the hanging wall. The force that creates this type of faults is the vertical compression as the crust of Earth is lengthening.

  • These faults can be found all over the world, and they are actually the most common type of faults.
  • The normal dip-slip faults are bounding big portion of the mountains, as well as rift valleys.
  • As these faults progress with their formation, with the footwall going up, and the hanging wall going down, the footwall becomes a hill or a mountain, while the hanging wall becomes a valley.
  • The normal dip-slip faults can be found at all types of tectonic plate boundaries.

A volcanic island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean explodes, and all life is removed from the island. However, decades later,
Tasya [4]

Answer:

secondary succession

Explanation:

In the described scenario we have a destruction of an ecosystem because of natural causes, volcano in this case. All that has left after the volcanic eruption has been barren land. After this has happened life started colonizing the volcanic island again, in a process known as primary succession. In the primary succession it is the organisms that have the lowest of requirements for survival that will inhabit the island. Over time, as they die, they will provide biomass for the ground, thus soil will start to form. Once there's soil formed a process called secondary succession will start. In this process the island will start to be inhabited by some plants and smaller animals. These plants and animals will contribute to further enhancing the living conditions on the island, and the island will gradually be getting larger plants and larger animals, thus a new ecosystem will be formed on the place of the old one.
