Answer:

Philippine plate

Explanation:

Eurasian plate from the northern and Australian plate from the southern sides and its eastwards movement is obstructed by the Philippine plate. This plate is moving at the speed of 3.2m/yr. The Eurasian plate is also being subducted beneath the Philippine plate. And java and Sumatra are a part of the Eurasian plate. This leads to the formation of volcanic arcs and festoons around this region, also this area is bombarded by most of the tectonic processes.

On a map with a scale of 1:126,720, a measured distance of 1 inch represents what distance in feet?
GrogVix [38]
126,720 feet.
Why?: For each inch on a map, it’s equal to 126,720 feet in reality. All maps are not drawn to scale, so we make them smaller and add a scale to ressemble what distances are necessary.

Hope this helps.

choli [55]

The correct answer is C. Ozone

Explanation:

Ozone is a type of gas formed by oxygen that can be found mainly in the stratosphere that is the layer found from around 8km to 60 km above the Earth's surface. Additionally, the ozone is the gas that absorbs ultraviolet radiation produced by the sun, also called UV radiation, this function of ozone is quite important because an excess in UV radiation causes burns in the living organism and leads to dagame in tissues. However, an excess of ozone can also lead to the greenhouse effect. According to this, it is ozone the component or gas that absorbs damaging ultraviolet radiation from the sun.
