<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Convergent boundary </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

It is easy to compare the relationship that exist between earthquakes and boundaries. Through the divergent boundaries, earthquakes are usually common but are restricted to a small zone that lies close to the ridge and less than 30 km in depth. Shallow earthquakes are commonly experienced in many parts of the country.

However, in places that they are common, earthquakes are abundant and they happen to be deep on the subduction as well as the landside where they cause major destruction when they occur.

Answer: Turn off unnecessary lights in the house and try not to waste energy

Explanation: I would most definitely try not to waste energy and electricity by keeping things like lights that don't need to be on, turning them off, unplugging things when I'm not using them, like a tv, a toaster, fans, printers and other appliances that don't need to be plugged in when not being used. This helps save energy in return.

hope this helps in some way.

100 Points given! :) Please List the warm Currents of the Northern Hemisphere:
mina [271]
In the Northern Hemisphere, for example, predictable winds called trade winds blow from east to west just above the equator. The winds pull surface water with them, creating currents. As these currents flow westward, the Coriolis effect—a force that results from the rotation of the Earth—deflects them. The currents then bend to the right, heading north. At about 30 degrees north latitude, a different set of winds, the westerlies, push the currents back to the east, producing a closed clockwise loop.
Hope that helped :D
