Answer:
b) a subduction boundary
Explanation:
The subduction boundaries, or convergent plate boundaries, are the places where the tectonic plates are colliding, and one of them subducts below the other. As one of the plates moves below the other, there's lot of pressure, and cracking occurring in the crust, so the magma manages to penetrate through it and comes out on the surface with ease. As it manages to get on the surface, it lifts up the land, and creates a cone shaped volcano. This volcanoes manage to make a very nice shape, the stereotypical volcano shape, and that is a result of constant pilling of material on the slopes of it. Some of the volcanoes that are regarded as the most beautiful are actually volcanoes of this type, like Mount Fuji in Japan for example.
Answer: Option (D)
Explanation: In the water cycle, water is transported from the oceans, seas and lakes to the atmosphere, which then again falls back due to precipitation.
Plants also absorbs water by their roots and releases back into the atmosphere by evapo-transpiration process. Some of the water gets percolated into the ground and gets mixes up with the groundwater.
Thus all the provided options fulfills the condition for water cycle except the last one, i.e dissolution of CO₂ in the ground water or the land surface is not considered to be a part of water cycle.
Hence the correct answer is option (D).
Answer:
1. 2004 tsunami
2. Mount St Helens 1980
3. Mount Pinatubo 1991
4. Kobe earthquake 1995

Mount St Helens 1980 is the most successful evacuation done because only Fifty-seven people died in this eruption while the rest of population were safely evacuated. Mount Pinatubo 1991 is a massive volcanic eruption that affected the provinces of Tarlac, Pampanga and Zambales in the Philippines. Due to Kobe earthquake 1995, most people is not able to go for work. 2004 tsunami occur due to the movement of the subduction zone in the interior region of the earth.
