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>

Answer:

B. The Bill of Rights did not apply at the state level.

Explanation:

Constitution's Bill of Rights restricts only the powers of the federal government and not those of the state governments. John Barron filed against the city of Baltimore, claiming that the city had deprived him of his property in violation of the Fifth Amendment, which provides that the government may not take private property without just compensation.

Ruling: Barron had no claim against the state under the Bill of Rights because the Bill of Rights does not apply to the states.
