Converging plate boundaries. continent to continent plate boundary converging if you want to be more specific.
to converge means to bring something together, that's how I always remembered. Transform boundaries move side to side, and are the reason for mainly fault lines, such as the San Andreas Fault in California. All plate boundaries do occur at subduction zones.

State your claim Make sure your claim fully explains why you can see the moon during the daytime and night. Whey can we see the
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

The day moon is a product of the sunlight reflected on the satellite. Sometimes, we can see the moon during the daytime, because depending on the moon´s position, sunlight is reflected on the satellite, allowing us to see from the Earth during the day.

Explanation:

The moon is a dull satellite that has no light by itself. The only way we can see it is through the reflection of the sunlight on this body. This effect also depends on the moon´s position concerning the Earth and to the sun. It is a natural product of the rotation and translation movement of the Earth and the moon.

This effect is related to the moon phases: new, first quarter, full and third quarter. During the daytime, we can see the waxing and waning gibbous phases because the moon is placed in a way that sunlight reaches it and reflects its shape. When this effect occurs, we can see that the star and the satellite get more separated each day. The moon gets to hide in the skyline later than the sun. This is why sometimes we can see the moon during the evening or the day.

Human activities can add which following to the atmosphere?
algol13

Answer:

d. carbon dioxide

Explanation:

The human activities contribute to lot of emissions of numerous different gasses into the atmosphere. The gasses that are released the most though are the greenhouse gasses, especially carbon dioxide.

The reason why the carbon dioxide is the gas that is added the most to the atmosphere by the humans is because the humans use fossil fuels. The fossil fuels run the economies around the world, so they are crucial to the industry, but also for the transportation, and travelling, being also used more and more in the agriculture too.

When the fossil fuels are burned they release carbon dioxide, as their basic component is carbon, so when they burn the carbon interacts with oxygen and creates lot of carbon dioxide.

The result of this is contributing to the global warming, as the more greenhouse gasses there are, the higher the temperatures become on global level.

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).
