Answer:

The statement that shows the correct definition of a type of tectonic plate boundary is included in two answers : letter "B" and "C", taking into account that in the two response options the same statement is repeated.

"At a divergent boundary, plates separate".

Explanation:

Divergent boundaries

  • It occurs when two tectonic plates move away from each other. When these types of boundaries occur, earthquakes are likely to occur and magma (molten rock) leaves the Earth's mantle to the surface. Then it hardens or solidifies and thus a new oceanic crust is created.

Convergent boundaries:

  • When two plates meet or collide, the impact of collision can cause different reactions: a) cause the edges of one or both plates to buckle into the mountain ranges; or that b) one of the plates bends towards the bottom of the ocean. This type of limits generates chains of volcanoes and earthquakes.

Transformation boundaries:

  • When two plates that slide together form a limit. The two plates that are found are compensated, divided and transported in opposite directions. The rocks that are in the limit are pulverized. Also, this type of boundary between plates generates earthquakes.

Why do earth quakes often happen near volcanic regions
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Most earthquakes directly beneath a volcano are caused by the movement of magma. The magma exerts pressure on the rocks until it cracks the rock. Then the magma squirts into the crack and starts building pressure again. Every time the rock cracks it makes a small earthquake.

Why is it important to understand the limitations of the data?
anastassius [24]

Limitations are important to understand for placing research findings in context, interpreting the validity of the scientific work, and ascribing a credibility level to the conclusions of published research. This goes beyond listing the magnitude and direction of random and systematic errors and validity problems.

A. Define globalization. B. Explain how the concept of the global village impacts the cultural landscape. C. Explain why an indi
dem82 [27]

a. Globalization is a social, political and economic phenomenon that seeks to promote the integration of all the nations of the world, through diplomatic, cultural and commercial links. Globalization is currently the main pillar of the capitalist system and the consolidation of world communication.

b. A global village is a result of globalization that creates speed in communication, transport and mixing cultures. This impacts the cultural landscape, because disintegrating cultural barriers that delimit the customs and concepts of a given region, which suffers a type of acculturation from the adoption of new cultural concepts, no longer allowing an outline of the cultural space.

c. Globalization causes a mixture of cultures, where less influential cultures are often suppressed by adopting cultural concepts from more influential cultures. Indians do not want to take that risk, as they want to maintain the cultural customs of their ancestors. This can make them resist globalization.

d. From a cultural point of view, diffusion refers to the act of expanding local culture to other regions. This can be done through conversations, exhibitions, products, cultural events and even imperialism.

e. The diffusion promoted a strong international trade, where a country can adopt the customs of consumption and products from other regions and integrate them into its daily life. An example of this is the adoption of the fashion concepts created in Paris by the rest of the world, the popularization of sushi in Western countries and the valorization of k-pop worldwide.

f. as diffusion barriers we can mention xenophobia, which causes rejection of anything and everything of foreign origin, as well as the anti-imperialist and decolonizing feeling, which makes a culture want to protect itself from the interference and acceptance of different cultures.
