Explosions occurring in magma chambers

The second type of eruption caused by tectonic plates is when the plates move away from each other allowing magma to rise and fill the the gap, which can cause a gentle explosion of thin lava of temperatures between 800 to 1,200C

<u>ANSWER:</u>

When an explosion occurs in magma chambers, the volcano erupts. The buildup of pressure on the chamber lid breaks the lid forcing the magma out through the cracks to the atmosphere in full force.

<u>EXPLANATION</u>:

  • Deep inside the Earth's core, the temperature is extremely high.
  • The layers of molten rocks on the core melt due to extremely high melting temperature and transform into magma.
  • Magma contains different gases such as Sulphur dioxide, carbon dioxide, water vapor, etc.
  • Magma along with the gases is sealed tightly in the magma chambers.
  • As the magma begins to melt more rocks, the gases also expand increasingly, building huge pressure on the chamber lid.
  • The chamber lid can no longer hold any more pressure and as a result, an eruption occurs.

2. What effect did the geography of ancient Greece<br> have on its early development?
Alik [6]

Answer:

The geography of ancient Greece determined and restricted its development to only certain areas, such as sea trade.

Explanation:

Ancient Greece, or rather the Hellenic city-states, are considered as one of the most developed civilizations of their time, though there can be made a solid case against it. Anyhow, in the early stages of the development of these city-states, they were very restricted in their development because of geographic factors.

The climate was of the Mediterranean type, which is a good climate, but problem was that the topography was rugged and mountainous, so agriculture was very limited to only a handful of crops and herding. Because all of the city-states had access to the sea, they focused on developing trade through it, with goods such as grapes, wine, olives, olives, and olive oil the most traded. They needed good wood for building ships, and they didn't really have any of that type. This made them heavily dependent on the Macedonians who had an abundance of wood, and considering that there was open hate between the two, it was not an ideal situation.

A force that slowly wears away mountains and other features on the surface of Earth is a. constructive. b. destructive. c. super
alexira [117]

The correct answer is - b. destructive.

Once the mountains stop their lifting up and also the other features are done with their formation, the erosion process takes over and starts to do its work by slowly wearing down the mountains and other features. The tendency of the erosion process is to flatten everything that it affects, so if there isn't any significant change that will cause lifting up of the terrain, the erosion will be able to flatten the space as much as possible. The erosive processes are considered as destructive processes because they are destroying the land features.
