What forms when plates move away from each other?

Geography
1 answer:
Anastaziya [24]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

When two plates are moving away from each other, we call this a divergent plate boundary. Along these boundaries, magma rises from deep within the Earth and erupts to form new crust on the lithosphere. Most divergent plate boundaries are underwater and form submarine mountain ranges called oceanic spreading ridges.

vovikov84 [41]

Answer: Because sand dunes protect inland areas from swells, tides, and winds, they must be protected and defended like national treasures.

List several ways in which governments control business?
Drupady [299]
A key finding from this work was that job creation in the United States was not coming from large companies, but small independently owned businesses. It recommended that government policy should target indirect rather than direct strategies with a greater focus on the role of small firms. Over the past 35 years the level of government interest in entrepreneurship and small business development as potential solutions to flagging economic growth and rising unemployment has increased. It helped to spawn a new field of academic study and research.
