Hello!

As you know, the Ring of Fire is a string of active and dormant volanic sites and seismic activity stretching from the Americas to Asia and down to Australia in the Pacific Ocean. This area has around 450 volcanoes (if not more) and is full of many trenches, which are deep and narrow excavations.

In this case the most likely cause of volanic activity in the area is best said to be b. The movemenet of mantle rock through the cracks between tectonic plates

These movements are also the same reason that explains the earthquakes that primarily occur in this region.

Hope this helps and if you need anymore clarifaction feel free to ask.

Why does the equatorward bending of height contours for the 500 mb level imply the presence of a trough?
sertanlavr [38]

The equatorward bending of height contours for the 500 mb level imply the presence of a trough because  this represents a region of overall lower heights. A valley and a trough are hence equivalent in the upper air flow.

A trough is a linear structural depression with lateral length that occurs in geology. A trough can be a small basin or a natural rift, albeit it is lower than a trench. At the edge of tectonic plates, these landforms frequently form.

Trough, an extended depression in the seafloor that differs from oceanic trenches in that it is shallower, shorter, narrower, and topographically more mild. The Papuan Trough's maximum depth is 2,300 m (7,500 feet), while the Banda Trough's maximum depth is 7,440 m.

15. Three types of volcanoes that we discussed in class characteristics of each.
Setler [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

The three main types of volcanoes are as follows:

1. Composite volcanoes: These are also called as strato volcanoes. These are steep and formed by the layers of ashes and lava. The eruption from these volcanoes is in the form of pyroclastic flow. The pyroclastic flow is in the form of superheated mixture which consists of rock dust, ash, and hot steam. These volcanoes can rise above the 8000 feet. These are found in the destructive plate margins. Example of these volcanoes include the Mount Fuji in Japan.

2. Shield Volcanoes: These volcanoes are low and they have gentle sloping sides. These are formed by the layers of lava. Their eruption of lava is non-explosive. These produces the fast flowing fluids that can flow to many miles. These can destroy the nearby surrounding regions can cause injury and even death. These volcanoes are found in the region of constructive boundaries and also at the volcanic hotspots. The examples of shield volcanoes include the Maunaloa on Hawaii.

3. Dome volcanoes: These are also called as acid lava cones as these emit acid which is much thicker than that of the lava. These have steeper sides as compared to the shield volcanoes. The lava is thick and sticky as a result of this it cannot flow to far region and it cools and solidifies. The example of dome volcanoes include the Puy de Dome of Auvergne, France.
