Answer:

The correct answer is E. The body of water that lies between Australia and Papua New Guinea is the Torres Strait.

Explanation:

Torres Strait is a strait between the Cape York Peninsula in the Australian state of Queensland and Papua New Guinea. The strait is about 150 km wide and connects the Coral Sea in the east with the Arafura Sea in the west.

The Torres Strait was discovered in 1606 by Spaniard Luis Vaez de Torres, who followed the south coast of New Guinea from east to west. It would, however, take until James Cook in 1770 until another person sailed it down.

Which of the following volcanoes would you expect to erupt explosively : A volcano located near a subduction zone, or a volcano
svp [43]

Answer:

The volcano over a mantle hotspot

Explanation:

I say this because lava comes from the grinding of those mantles, which melt rocks and make lava. If the mantles are super active, the lava will more than likely be explosive. Think of this (heat wise) as tea boiling in a kettle. The stove is the mantle, kettle as volcano and water as lava. When the mantles get hot enough they push that heat and pressure into the water, making it boil and when the steam starts to squeal out of the kettle, the volcano has erupted. Hope this helped!
