An earthquake is the shaking and trembling that results from the movement of rock beneath Earth's surface. Earthquakes most comm

only occur near tectonic plate boundaries.
Why is this most likely the case?

A.Seismic waves transmit through different media at different speeds. Subduction zones at plate boundaries are ideal for transmission of these waves.

B.Tectonic plates move along, against, or away from each other at their boundaries. These movements produce earthquakes.

C.Many plate boundaries are bordered or covered by the ocean. Water from the ocean seeps into earthquake fault lines, softening the rock materials so that they can move and cause earthquakes.

D.Earthquakes can only happen near volcanic eruptions, and most volcanoes occur on or near plate boundaries.

How to tell if a red eared slider is a boy or a girl.
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Males have long, thick tails that stick out quite a bit from their shells. Females have shorter, thinner tails that are less noticeable. When looking at male vs female red-eared turtles, the slider with the thicker tail is likely to be a male.

Explanation:

For male red-eared sliders,  maturity is about the time they reach 4 inches in length (and at about two to five years old). Females are mature when they reach 6 to 7 inches in length (which may take five to seven years). Females will grow larger than males in red-eared sliders and many other turtle species, but the size difference between males and females varies by species.
