A general term that literally means "white patch" is leukoplakia.
Explanation:
The Maluku Islands or the Moluccas (/məˈlʌkəz/) (Molukken) are an archipelago in eastern Indonesia. Tectonically they are located on the Halmahera Plate within the Molucca Sea Collision Zone. Geographically they are located east of Sulawesi, west of New Guinea, and north and east of Timor. Lying within Wallacea (mostly east of the biogeographical Weber Line), the Maluku islands have been considered part of both Asia and Oceania.The islands were known as the Spice Islands because of the nutmeg, mace and cloves that were exclusively found there, the presence of which sparked colonial interest from Europe in the sixteenth century.[2]
The Maluku Islands formed a single province from Indonesian independence until 1999, when it was split into two provinces. A new province, North Maluku, incorporates the area between Morotai and Sula, with the arc of islands from Buru and Seram to Wetar remaining within the existing Maluku Province. North Maluku is predominantly Muslim, and its capital is Sofifi on Halmahera island. Maluku province has a larger Christian population, and its capital is Ambon. Though originally Melanesian,[3] many island populations, especially in the Banda Islands, were massacred in the seventeenth century during the Dutch–Portuguese War, also known as The Spice War. A second influx of immigrants primarily from Java began in the early twentieth century under the Dutch and continues in the Indonesian era, which has also caused a lot of controversy as the Transmigrant programs have done so and even thought to have led to the Maluku Riots.[citation needed]
Between 1999 and 2002, conflict between Muslims and Christians killed thousands and displaced half a million people.
Answer: Option (1)
Explanation:
When an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate, the denser oceanic plate gets subducted beneath the less denser continental plate, and this down-going slab undergoes partial melting at greater depth known as the subduction zone, which forces the magma to rise up and form volcano on the over-riding plate.
These volcanoes are of three types, namely the composite, dome and shield volcano. For example, Mount Vesuvius and Mount Fuji.
Thus, the correct answer is option (1).
A tectonic plate is pretty much big chunks in the crust that slowly move through the convention area in the top of the mantle. It is what made the continents. They drift and can either crash head on, slide under one another, or they can just rip apart. this is called the tectonic drift.
Answer:
c maps can show more information
Explanation:
this is because maps have to be changed because they are warped so but they can also show more than a globe can at a time.
