Tectonic plates are parts (pieces) of the outermost layer of Earth: the Crust. (the outermost part of the mantle is also often included in the plates). This means that the land in the middle of the plates is relatively stable while the borders of the plates can be in movement - after all this is where two pieces meet. Plate borders are where the vocanoes and Earthquakes often take place.
The correct option is LOESS.
Loess refers to a compacted yellowish deposit of wind blown sediments which is usually found extensively in the mid latitudes. Loess is formed by the accumulation of dust that had been blown by the wind. Scientists believed that about 10% of the earth's land area is covered by loess.<span />
Homeostasis brings a balance in the body it is also called equilibrium.
The appropriate answer is B. DIVERGENT. Divergent margins occur where two oceanic plates are pulling apart or it can occur where a Continental landmass is pulling apart.
As oceanic plates pull apart magma up wells from the mantle and new crust is formed along what is called a spreading ridge. The Mid Alantic ridge is an example of a spreading ridge where new oceanic crust is being formed.
