Answer:

B. both earthquakes and volcanoes are common.

Explanation:

Transform Plate Boundaries are locations where two tectonic plates slide against one another. There are three types of plate boundaries: convergent, divergent, and transform.

When the plates rub against each other, huge stresses can cause portions of the rock to break, resulting in earthquakes. Places where these breaks occur are called faults.

A well-known example of a transform fault is the San Andreas Fault in California and the Alpine Fault of New Zealand.

Volcanism occurs at convergent boundaries (subduction zones) and at divergent boundaries (mid-ocean ridges, continental rifts), but not commonly at transform boundaries.

Plate boundaries are also associated with the creation of other topographic features such as mountains, volcanoes, mid-ocean ridges, and oceanic trenches. However, except there is a deep break into the earth's crust, the volcanoes are not noticeable.

Explain the process of precipitation,evaporation, and condensation within the water cycle
andre [41]

evaporation is when a mass of water is hit by sunlight and some of it turns to a vapor. In the atmosphere, that vapor cools and the water molecules fuse with other water molecules, forming clouds. (condensation) When the clouds become full, the water precipitates onto land or into the ocean in the form of rain, sleet, snow or hail (precipitation).

Where did the earths surface water come from?​
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are two dominant theories:

The inside-out model proposes that the Earth formed with trace amounts of water structurally bonded to the minerals in the mantle. This water makes its way to the Earth’s surface through volcanic processes.  

The outside-in model proposes that the Earth formed without water, which came with other volatiles from the meteorites or comets that bombarded the young planet. This water was probably mixed into the upper layers of the Earth and was later brought to the surface through volcanism.
