Answer:

In plurality election system, the person with the most percentage of votes out of all contesting candidates wins. While in the majority voting system, the candidate should receive more than half of the votes.

For example,

Three people A, B & C are contesting in a plurality based system, and receive 10%, 35% and 45% respectively.

Person C will win as he/she has received most votes.

However, in the same case in majority based system, no one will be called a winner.

kupik [55]

The correct answer is oceanic; subduction

The lithosphere layer is above the asthenosphere, a layer that presents the rocks in a more pasty state, due to the high temperatures present inside the planet. The meeting zone between the lithosphere and the asthenosphere has an isotherm, that is, a constant temperature, which is approximately 1,200ºC. Thus, everything above this point of contact has sufficient temperatures to make the rocks remain rigid.
