Carrying capacity is the theoretical maximum rate of population growth. It is the maximum population size that the environment can sustain. This means that it is the maximum number of individuals of given species that the evironment's resources can sustain. It is the population size that can have enough water, food, habitat and other resources in order to survive and live.

Answer:

Heat from the mantle forms convection currents causing the tectonic plates to diverge and form ocean basins.

Explanation:

Ocean basins form as a result of convection in the mantle along divergent margins.

  • At a divergent margin, new crusts are being formed.
  • It is said to be a constructive margin because new materials reaches through to the earth surface from there.
  • The mantle convection pushes materials up  and down away from heating centers and to cold regions and back and forth.
  • This leads to the creation of cells which moves the overlying plate.
  • The mantle materials are then able to reach the surface to form new ocean basin.

Which of the following volcanoes would you expect to erupt explosively : A volcano located near a subduction zone, or a volcano
svp [43]

Answer:

The volcano over a mantle hotspot

Explanation:

I say this because lava comes from the grinding of those mantles, which melt rocks and make lava. If the mantles are super active, the lava will more than likely be explosive. Think of this (heat wise) as tea boiling in a kettle. The stove is the mantle, kettle as volcano and water as lava. When the mantles get hot enough they push that heat and pressure into the water, making it boil and when the steam starts to squeal out of the kettle, the volcano has erupted. Hope this helped!
