Answer:

D. M<u>ineralized rocks in the fault zones that bound basins.</u>

Explanation:

  • The geology of Arizona starts with the formation of the Precambrian period. When igneous and metamorphic rocks were overwritten by Yavapai and Mazatzal orogenies in the Proterozoic era.
  • The Grenville orogeny in the east caused Arizona to fill with the sediments filling a shallow sea. The region oscillated between the terrestrial and shallow oceanic conditions during the paleozoic era multicellular life became common.
  • The limestone forming a shallow sea, stare caves and important ore deposits, and marine deposits were common at this period. Arizona thus had extensive mineralization in veins, due to hydrothermal fluids.

Which type of landform develops at plate boundaries where one oceanic plate descends beneath another?
Llana [10]

The answer is B. In a destructive plate boundary, the descending plate, usually the oceanic plate begins to melt as it descends below into the mantle. This forms magma that rises and erupts onto the overlying continental plate through fissures. This volcanic activity is responsible for geographical features such as the volcanic island arc, which lies parallel to the subduction zone.
