What happens when a continental plate splits apart

History
1 answer:
inna [77]3 years ago
3 0
The two parts of the continent start to move away from each other 
causing rifting of the continental plate, the center or the rift becomes thinner, weaker and starts to sag. The basin area in the middle which has sagged is usually filled up with water, forming a sea. (e.g. the red sea) 
The thinner plate in the center then becomes oceanic crust from this, and in the center a new constructive plate boundary is formed. <span>The plates continue to move apart from one another and magma erupts from the constructive/divergent plate boundary, producing new oceanic crust formed mainly of basalt.</span>

How did the abolitionist movement and the underground railroad help increase differences between the north and south
Lunna [17]

Answer:

The abolitionist movement and the underground railroad increased tensions between the North and South because they highlighted the problem of slavery while fighting against it directly. Southern states felt attacked by these movements.

Explanation:

Slavery was an important feature of Souther identity. Because of their strong defense of slavery they felt personally attacked by any critics of the slavery system.

Thus as the abolitionist movement and the underground railroad gained momentum these questions got more intense. In the South the hate for abolitionism got to the point where censorship was overt: abolitionism was illegal and president Andrew Jackson prohibited the postal service from delivering abolitionist publications to the South.

These tensions were not resolved and would lead to the Civil War.
