<em>Answer:</em>
<em>The contact between lithospheric plates is called a. plate boundary. The center of a mid-ocean ridge is where. new oceanic lithosphere is being created.</em>
Explanation:
<em>The Earth’s lithosphere, which includes the crust and upper mantle, is made up of a series of pieces, or tectonic plates, that move slowly over time. A divergent boundary occurs when two tectonic plates move away from each other. Along these boundaries, earthquakes are common and magma (molten rock) rises from the Earth’s mantle to the surface, solidifying to create new oceanic crust. The Mid-Atlantic Ridge is an example of divergent plate boundaries. When two plates come together, it is known as a convergent boundary. The impact of the colliding plates can cause the edges of one or both plates to buckle up into a mountain ranges or one of the plates may bend down into a deep seafloor trench. A chain of volcanoes often forms parallel to convergent plate boundaries and powerful earthquakes are common along these boundaries. The Pacific Ring of Fire is an example of a convergent plate boundary. At convergent plate boundaries, oceanic crust is often forced down into the mantle where it begins to melt. Magma rises into and through the other plate, solidifying into granite, the rock that makes up the continents. Thus, at convergent boundaries, continental crust is created and oceanic crust is destroyed. Two plates sliding past each other forms a transform plate boundary. One of the most famous transform plate boundaries occurs at the San Andreas fault zone, which extends underwater. Natural or human-made structures that cross a transform boundary are offset—split into pieces and carried in opposite directions. Rocks that line the boundary are pulverized as the plates grind along, creating a linear fault valley or undersea canyon. Earthquakes are common along these faults. In contrast to convergent and divergent boundaries, crust is cracked and broken at transform margins, but is not created or destroyed.</em>
A synonym for the slope of a line is the <em>rate of change</em>. However, one purpose for the slope of the line is the determine whether the linear relationship has a positive correlation or a negative correlation. Based off of this, your answer most likely is D.
Answer:
It will take 9 hours
Explanation:
If a car travels 100 km per hour and 900 km is divided by 100 it will take 9 hours to travel.
Answer:
Explanation:
The amount of heat energy of any material to get moved per meter length for per unit change in temperature is called coefficient of thermal conductivity.
The value of coefficient of thermal conductivity is different for different materials.
The correct answer would be D) To make conclusions reliable.
