The two tectonic plates meet at point one. One is moving under the other, shown by the two arrows on the top pointing towards each other. The denser plate (left side) is subducted. This means the denser plate begins to go under the less dense plate. The lithosphere (crust/tectonic plate) is mainly solid rock. As it begins to go into the mantle it will begin to heat up as the mantle is hotter than the surface. The solid surface becomes a molten rock, known as magma. It melts as it goes down.
C the size of glaciers in alaska
I think the answer would be C) a place where water heated by magma rises from the ocean floor because it is an opening on the Ocean floor that releases heated mineral - rich water.
Transform: The plates slide past each other, one going forwards, the other going back, kind of grinding each other. A Transform Boundary is also a fault, so it causes Earthquakes mostly.
Convergent: When two plates collide with each other. They form subduction mostly and trenches. They can also create volcanoes or volcanic islands.
Divergent: When two boundaries move away from each other. They form rift valleys, mountain ranges
Answer: Earth reinforcing
Explanation: Earth reinforcing is a method of strengthening the soil/ground when constructing foundation by combining materials such as steel or concrete to the soil. It is especially useful for the construction of conventional retaining walls or mining structures.
Historically, steel nets were used on areas with soft clay, such as sea beds. Some materials used now include Geonets and geogrids.
