Examples of diverging plate volcanoes are Krafla Volcano in the northern part of Iceland, a volcanic country that traverses the mid-Atlantic ridge and prone to a lot of volcanic activity, and Erta Ale and Oldoinyo Lengal in East Africa.

Divergent plate boundaries are formed when tectonic plates pull away from each other. When this happens, hot mantle rock rises where the plates are moving apart. Lava erupts through the long cracks in the ground or fissures resulting in volcano formation. The volcanoes are created due to rifting where faults along the surface continue to widen and spread out.

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Water distribution around the globe is enough to meet the demands of the world populace, but the spatial distribution of freshwater is not. There are many regions around the world where domestic and economic water demands cannot be met due to environmental and climatological limitations. These are the challenges that limit the abstraction of clean water for anthropogenic use.

How does the vegetation surface affect the amount of runoff, and why?

Tcecarenko [31]

Vegetation catches precipitation on its leaves, slowing it down or holding it for a while. This gives the ground more time to absorb the water, so there's less runoff.
