Some mountains are volcanoes, and some volcanoes are mountains, but not all mountains are volcanoes, and not all volcanoes are mountains. For a mountain to be a volcano and a volcano to be a mountain, it must be formed from magma and volcanic materials from below the Earth's surface.
Answer:
surfaces of uniform composition
Explanation:
- Air Mass is a volume of air characterized by temperature and water vapor content and stretched for 100 kilometers.
- Classified according to the latitude and the source regions, like cold air mass found in cooler polar regions and warm masses form over the hotter and drier regions of continents and maritime air mass are found at the seas and oceanic masses.
- As air mass differs based on there densities they have humid and temperature conditions and can be modified in various ways, an increase or decrease of temperature is also affected by the large scale environmental conditions.
Answer:
centimeters
Explanation:
The lithospheric plates move relative to the others at a very slow but continuous speed that is, on average, about five centimeters per year. This movement is ultimately driven by the unequal distribution of heat inside the Earth. The hot material found in the depths of the mantle moves slowly upwards and serves as a part of our planet's internal convection system. Simultaneously, colder and denser sheets of the oceanic lithosphere descend to the mantle, moving the rigid outer layer of the Earth into motion. Finally, the titanic friction between Earth's lithospheric plates generates earthquakes, creates volcanoes and deforms large masses of rock in the mountains. But it causes climate changes to be experienced every million years.
