The oceanic plate sinks below the continental plate.

At some convergent boundaries, an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate. Oceanic crust tends to be denser and thinner than continental crust, so the denser oceanic crust gets bent and pulled under, or subducted, beneath the lighter and thicker continental crust. This forms what is called a subduction zone.

The stagnation stage of the life cycle of a resort is often characterized by the increasing cost of public services and the lowe
andrezito [222]

The viewpoint of older residents would be one of not much complaint because they would be happy to get out of their industrial cities.

A well-educated middle-class couple with children would be very disappointed and angry with the resort's services because their education allows them to know they are getting less than they paid for.

<h3>What happens in the stagnation stage?</h3>

In the stagnation stage, a resort will no longer be as good as it used to be and competition will threaten it. Public services will be more expensive as less people come and quality of life will decrease.

Older residents would still appreciate the resort because they are more used to hardship and will appreciate relaxing a little.

Well-educated middle-class people would be angry with the poor service because they know they should be offered better for the money they paid.

Question 6(Multiple Choice Worth 3 points) B If solidification ages at the Mid-Atlantic Ridge are around 10,000 years old, what
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Option (2)

Explanation:

The mid oceanic ridge is the region along which two plates moves away from one another. This occurs in the divergent plate boundary. The magma, during this type of plate motion, comes out to the surface of the ocean floor and solidifies immediately due to the lowering temperature, giving rise to the formation of basaltic rocks.  

The solidification age refers to the time when the magma last crystallized as it ejected at the ocean floor.

According to the given condition, the magma last solidified nearly 10,000 years back in the mid oceanic ridge, which are considered to be the youngest rocks found along the mid oceanic ridge.

Thus, the correct answer is option (2).

Why is 90% of logging activity in Canada considered “unsustainable”?
kenny6666 [7]
<span>Confidence votes 3.1K. Sustainable logging means logging an area in such a way as there is always trees to be cut. In other words, logging in a way that leaves young trees, medium age trees and mature trees behind each time you log, so that you can always log that area in the future.</span>
