Biology

Answer:

Option D, Between converging oceanic and continental plates

Explanation:

Subduction zones/boundaries are formed in the regions in which one tectonic plate slips below the other tectonic plates. These tectonic plates could be a pair of oceanic/continental plates or one oceanic and one continental plate.

In a converging process, two tectonic plates move towards each other until they collide thereby causing slipping of one plate below the other. While in a diverging process, the two tectonic plates move away from each other and hence there is no chance of formation of subduction zone.

Thus, option D is correct.

Joel notices that there is not much difference between low and high tide. what is happening?
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

This is the spring tide: the highest (and lowest) tide. Spring tides are not named for the season. This is spring in the sense of jump, burst forth, rise. So spring tides bring the most extreme high and low tides every month, and they always happen – every month – around full and new moon.
