Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

In this region we see that faulting has occurred. Because the rock strata are not lined up with one another across the entire region, it is clear that the land has faulted and the the two edge blocks have slipped downwards leaving the middle block uplifted or that the middle block has been pushed upwards.

These two types of faulting are called normal faulting and reverse faulting. They are the result of tension and compression stresses, respectively, that pull and compress the rocks creating fractures called faults. If the stress is sufficient, the outer blocks slide downward or the middle block is uplifted.

nadezda [96]

<em>The convergence between a continental plate and an oceanic plate</em><em> is subduction process where the denser oceanic plate force the </em><em>thinner continental plate to sink into the mantle.</em>

<u>Answer:</u><em> Option (D)</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The<em> type of volcanism formed the Andean Mountains in South America</em> is due to subduction process.  It is due to the converging of Nazca Plate over Antarctic Plate due to gravity and made them to sink below the <em>South American Plate. </em>

Lucinda has 9 ounces of flour. A batch of cupcakes requires 1/3 ounce of flour. A batch of muffins requires 1/4 ounce of flour.
NeX [460]

Answer:

9 more muffins

Explanation:

Lucinda has 9 ounces of flour.

To make a cupcake she requires 1/3 ounce of flour, therefore the number of cupcakes she can make from 9 ounces of flour can be given by:

(1/3)x = 9 where x is the number of cupcakes.

Therefore, x = 9 × 3 = 27 cupcakes

To make a muffin she requires 1/4 ounce of flour, therefore the number of muffins she can make from 9 ounces of flour can be given by:

(1/4)y = 9 where y is the number of muffins.

Therefore, y = 9 × 4 = 36 muffins

The number of more muffins she can make more than cupcakes from her flour = 36 - 27 = 9 more muffins
