Answer:

D. oceanic trench

Explanation:

<em>A. hydrothermal vents</em>

These are found near volcanic active places. It is a fissure on the seafloor from where geothermally rises.

<em>B. island arc</em>

An island arc is a curved chain of volcanic islands located at a tectonic plate margin, typically with a deep ocean trench on the convex side.

<em>C. mountains</em>

A mountain is a large land-form that rises above the surrounding ground in a limited area. Mountains are formed by tectonic forces or volcanoes.

<em>D. oceanic trench</em>

These are formed by subduction. Although most island arcs might be with an oceanic trench, it is simply a topographic depression of the sea floor, usually narrow in width and very long. An example is the Mariana Trench. An oceanic trench compared to other options on this list does not fit the pattern at all.

<em>E. volcanoes</em>

Volcanoes are caused by a rupture in earth's crust. During volcanoes, hot lava, volcanic ash, and gases escape from a magma chamber below the surface.

Which type of plate boundary does the image show?
IceJOKER [234]

The image shows the Convergent plate boundary.

<u>Explanation: </u>

Convergent boundaries occur wherever the Earth’s tectonic plates move or collide toward each other. As the plates converge, the denser, thinner tectonic plate sub-ducts or dives beneath the lighter, thicker, more buoyant tectonic plate.

As shown in the picture, the plates are composed of rigid lithosphere consisting of the crust of the earth and the uppermost mantle. Movement of the plates is driven by convection in the asthenosphere and lower mantle, which are softer and warmer than the lithosphere and can flow on geologic timescales. Convection is fuelled by heat generated from  radioactive decay of elements in the Earth.

Answer:

I'm pretty sure it's spring

In a market economy, what determines for whom goods are produded?
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

C. supply and demand

Explanation:

<u>In the system of the market economy, the decisions about economic processes are based on the of the people (how much they need and buy something) and the needs of the supply (needs for natural resources, goods, and things which can be bought). </u>

A market economy also means the pricing of the goods is based on the demand for them. If products are not in demand and bought by the customers, it’s the price and supply goes down. Once the demand for the product grows, the profit is made.

The final goal is the price which is <u>equilibrium</u>, meaning goods are supplied exactly by the demand and with the fixed price that makes the process possible. This equilibrium should also provide the profit for the supplier.
