The hawaiian islands are located where the pacific plate is:
damaskus [11]
The Hawaiian Islands are formed on a region of intra plate volcanic activity on the Pacific plate. This region is known as a hot spot. Scientists are not exactly sure what causes this but they do know that a plume of magma rises through the mantle and forces it's way through the crust to form submarine volcanoes and over time volcanic islands.
The magma that rises here originates from the mantle and not crustal melt and so forms basic or basaltic lava.

Match the place to the letter that represents it on the map.
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

The Caribbean Sea - B

Panama - C

Belize - A

Nicaragua - F

Guatemala - G

El Salvador - E

Costa Rica - D

Honduras - H

Explanation:

The region shown on the map is Central America, but also the Caribbean Sea. This region, geographically speaking, is part of North America because it lies on the North American plate, but very often it is put as a separate region known as Central America, or rather the part of the Americas that connect North and South America. East of this region is located the Caribbean Sea, while west of is the Pacific Ocean

Central America is a region that was formerly a Spanish colony, with the exception of Belize, and this can be seen easily in the culture and languages that are spoken, with the Spanish dominating in six of the seven countries, while in Belize it is the English that is dominant. Five of the countries of Central America have access to both the Caribbean Sea and the Pacific Ocean, giving them an excellent strategic location. The region is almost entirely dominated by a tropical wet climate and it is covered with tropical rainforests. While many things seem to be excellent for these countries to be well developed and to have going well, they still struggle a lot, mainly because of internal conflicts.
