Answer:
To the east, the North American plate shares the Mid-Atlantic Ridge with the Eurasian plate. This divergent margin, offset throughout by transform faults, began spreading approximately 180 Ma ago, opening the North Atlantic Ocean. Evidence of Mesozoic juvenile crust formation in New England can be correlated with the event.
Explanation:
The San Andreas transform boundary between the Pacific and North American plate originates from the shallow, oblique subduction by the North American plate of the Monterey microplate
The Monterey-Pacific ridge stopped spreading and Monterey accreted to the Pacific plate. As a result, the Pacific plate’s motion with respect to the North American rotated, transforming a network of shallow faults into dextral transform faults

Answer:
The Great Basin
Explanation:
The desert area in the center of the Cordillera in the United States is called the Great Basin.
- The Great Basin is located between the Rocky mountains and the Coastal plains.
- This region is bowl shaped depression between the topographic features.
- The mountains prevents precipitation from forming in this excluded region.
Answer:
geyser
Explanation:
The water feature shown by the image is a geyser.
Geyser are natural feature that ejects a column of hot water, steam or vapor into the atmosphere.
- Geysers are usually formed in areas of active volcanic and tectonic activities.
- When surface water comes in contact with a very hot body in formations, they become pressurized and rises up.
- They then become forcefully ejected through rock cavities and joints.
- This forced ejection leads to a head of water rising above the surrounding area.
