(1) Earth's crust is made up of relatively rigid plates that ride atop Earth's hot, semiliquid mantle. (2) The plates are called

tectonic because they're in constant motion. (3) They can move because Earth's mantle is a very hot and semiliquid fluid called magma. (4) Volcanoes are a result of magma rising up or erupting through a plate, particularly where plate boundaries are moving against each other. (5) Also, when plates slide against each other, causing friction along adjacent plate boundaries, earthquakes frequently occur. (6) Therefore, we often find volcanoes and earthquakes along plate boundaries. (7) Plates may also collide. (8) When that happens, mountain ranges are formed. (9) For example, the collision of the plate carrying the Indian subcontinent created the Himalayan Mountains when it collided with the Asian plate.

Some people think all dreams have special meaning what do you think write with example
Ilya [14]

Answer:

I think all dreams have a special meaning. Every person has people they love and care about. If someone has a dream of someone they like, then it's special to them. Sometimes people dream about their future. That's only their future. Not anybody else's. That is why I think all dreams have special meanings.

Essay topic : an unusual pet<br> word limit: 150-200
MrMuchimi

Answer:

Unusual Pet: A Peacock

Explanation:

A Peacock is an unusual pet that is uncommon to own, and they differ from common household pets such as a dog or cat! Peacocks are exotic animals that require special needs to be cared for properly. Peacocks need a minimum of at least 80 square feet to live healthily. An ideal living space would be an open area that allows them to roam and fly freely. Another important thing to consider is that peacocks thrive in warm environments. It's vital to keep their living area warm, especially when the weather starts to get cold. Peacock's are omnivores, meaning that they can consume both meat and vegetables. It's ideal to feed them a variety of options like fruits, veggies, and insects. However, peacocks living in zoos usually eat commercial bird feed so you can feed them that as well. Like with any of our pets, we must take care of their health. Peacock's require special attention as they are susceptible to catching worms and other parasitic diseases. They need to be dewormed every few months and this can be done by calling a farm vet or buying a dewormer made for farm animals. Peacocks are beautiful creatures that require special care, but they do make for a unique unusual pet.

Hope this helps!

lana66690 [7]
I would say C or D but I am not sure which. C seems right because in order for something to be successful the general public should be able to afford it. D could be right but I am leaning more towards C because everything that is listed under D should be done anyway when it comes to newspaper. So final answer c

I tried my best to narrow it down for you. I hope I helped. Let me know.
