The chronometer is a device to measure time in a period of time, therefore not a correct answer.
The correct answer is D. ocean floor mapping and earthquake tracking
Tracking earthquakes is helpful because it shows where it came from and what caused it, as well as how it affected the environment, while ocean floor mapping is useful because it shows how the bottom of the sea changed over time which happens due to tectonic activity.
Since when you write in scientific notation and the first number has to be infront the decimal, it would be 6x10^-6 and it would be a negative because you moved the decimal to the write and not the left to make it positive hope this helps :))))
Answer:
D)
Explanation:
Divergent plate boundaries occur when two tectonic plates are moving apart, such as the Eurasian Plate and the North American Plate. As the plate move apart energy, can be released as an earthquake. In the place of the lithosphere that is being dragged apart, magma can seep through as a volcanic eruption. In some cases the new volcanoes can for mountains along the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, dividing the tectonic plates. It can also cause a rift valley.
Earth’s atmosphere traps heat from the sun, which makes Earth’s temperature suitable for living things.
