Answer:

a-near plate boundaries

Explanation:

  • The plate boundaries form the basis for the tectonic activity and due to this the plate collides and the there collision results in the formation of the volcanoes as they are bent and overthrust by the underlying material and enhance the occurrence of the earthquakes take place here, like this in an active margin of the two plates either the oceanic or the continental plate.
  • <u>The plates collide and form a mountain when its continental in origin while formation volcano of its oceanic and the continental plate, and the earthquake ate bound to occur due to this. </u>
  • The tectonic activity thus depends on the rock movement from below and the intensity of the pressure and the release of force form the convective center of the earth.

If there was no gravity in earth what would be the effects
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

With less gravity, it is harder to keep your body strong. If the Earth's gravity is lost, all items held to the Earth's surface by gravity would float away. That includes the atmosphere, water, people, cars and animals. If an object were secured strongly to the Earth, it would probably remain attached depending on how strong it is.

the warming of the earth due to buildup of carbon dioxide and other gases that help trap energy is termed the greenhouse effect.
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

The warming of the Earth due to buildup of carbon dioxide and other gases that help trap energy is termed the greenhouse effect.

Because the exchange of incoming and outgoing radiation that warms the earth because heat trapped is close to Earth's surface by “greenhouse gases.” These heat-trapping gases can be thought of as a blanket wrapped around Earth, keeping the planet toastier than it would be without them.

Green house gases:

1) Carbon dioxide (CO2)

2) Methane (CH4)

3) Nitrous oxide (N2O)

4) Industrial gases:

    a) Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs)

    b) Perfluorocarbons (PFCs)

    c) Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6)

    d) Nitrogen trifluoride (NF3)

The concentration of greenhouse gases is increasing in large part because of the combustion of fossil fuels. Key sources of chlorofluorocarbons are solvents, refrigerants, and propellants.
