Answer:

Doldrums

Explanation:

The trade winds converge in the region of the ITCZ, producing convectional storms that produce some of the world's heaviest precipitation regions. The ITCZ moves north and south of the equator depending on the season and solar energy received

<u>Answer:</u>

Doldrums are produced when trade winds converge.  

<u>Explanation:</u>

Inter Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) commonly referred to as Doldrums by the sailors is the region around equator where calm, windless weather prevails.

ITCZ is caused due to the converging Trade Winds and the rising air. ITCZ is generally found along the equator, it  keeps moving and follows the Sun's overhead position with a delay of 1-2 months. Doldrums region is considered favorable for the navigation by the sailors.

The mass movement is often referred to as the downslope movement of materials such as rock particles, soil and sand under the influence of gravity. The factors that are responsible for the mass movement are gravity, steepening of the slope, lack of vegetation cover, oversaturation of soil or materials. They can also occur during an earthquake as the ground shakes. These mass wasting is also considered as the mass wasting process.

Ocean spreading centers are highlands on the ocean floor, sometimes referred to as submarine mountains. Oceanic crust worldwide
anastassius [24]

Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

The mid-oceanic ridges are the submarine mountains that are formed in a divergent plate boundary. In this region, the oceanic crust gradually rises due to the movement of the magma towards the surface. This movement of magma upward is due to the formation of convection current in the mantle, where these currents are generated because of the heat energy provided from the interior of the earth.

These are the region, where the temperature is extremely high and the rocks are in the form of liquid (magma) and hot rocks are less denser than the cold rocks, so they move upward. This motion of magma upward and erupting on the seafloor leads to the uprising of the oceanic crust.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).
