What continents lie mostly east of the prime meridian?

Geography
1 answer:
spin [16.1K]3 years ago
4 0

The continents that lie mostly east of the prime meridian are Asia, Australia, and Africa.

Asia and Australia are continents that are situated completely to the east of the prime meridian. Africa is divided, as the prime meridian cuts through it. Still we can say that Africa is a continent that is situated mostly on the east of the prime meridian, considering the fact that the prime meridian cuts only through the western part of the continent, so only small portion of it is on the west of the prime meridian.

Asia is also a continent that is almost totally on the Northern Hemisphere. Australia is a continent that lies totally on the Southern Hemisphere. Africa, again, is divided, as the equator runs through the middle part of it, thus making it a continent on both the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere.

Which two transitions can magma undergo?
valkas [14]

Answer:

b. crystallization above ground and crystallization below ground

Explanation:

The magma undergoes transition when it moves from the mantle layer toward the lithosphere. The reason for this is that the pressure and temperature drastically change. With other words, the magma starts to cool off as it comes toward the surface of the Earth. As the magma cools off it starts to crystallize, resulting in the formation of igneous rocks. When the magma comes out on the surface, known as lava in those cases, it cools of very quickly because the temperature and pressure are much lower. Because the cooling off occurs very quickly, the magma crystallizes quickly, so the crystals are small, and it forms extrusive igneous rocks. When the magma cools off underground, but still relatively close to the surface, the temperature and pressure are slightly bigger than those on the surface. Because of this, the magma cools off slower, thus it crystallizes slower. This results in the formation of larger crystals, and intrusive igneous rocks.

Scientific notation has one number and then the decimal place so it can not be A or E.
