Answer:
The correct answer is option b. "by their dominant processes that formed them".
Explanation:
Mountains are classified in four different types according to the dominant processes that formed them. The four different types of mountains are: upwarped mountains, fault-block mountains, folded mountains and volcanic mountains. Upwarped mountains are produced by a differential of pressure from inside the Earth that pushed the crust upwards. Fault-block mountains were formed by tectonic plate movement, folded mountain when two plates move together, while volcanic mountains are formed by a crack in the Earth known as volcanic vent.
Hmm.this one is complicated .many factors affect the amount of solar energy an area receives but mainly the length of the solar rays.places close to the equator are hotter because the rays are short and the travel less distance.but away from the equator the rays are longer
Answer:First, samples of the deep ocean floor show that basaltic oceanic crust and overlying sediment become progressively younger as the mid-ocean ridge is approached, and the sediment cover is thinner near the ridge.
Explanation:
The features of the seafloor and the patterns of magnetic polarity symmetrically about the mid-ocean ridges were the pieces that Hess needed. ... As oceanic crust forms and spreads, moving away from the ridge crest, it pushes the continent away from the ridge axis.
