Trenches occur at divergent plate boundaries. a. True b. False

Geography
1 answer:

Answer:

b. False

Explanation:

The trenches are not physical features that occur on places where there are subduction zones between the tectonic plates, but they do not appear on places where there are divergent plate boundaries. The trenches are simply very deep, narrow, ocean beds, that have very steep sides.

The divergent boundaries are the opposite boundaries from where the trenches occur. These boundaries occur between tectonic plates that move away from each other. The typical physical feature at this type of plate boundaries are the mid-ocean ridges (if it occurs in an ocean), or the rift valleys (if it occurs on land).

This type of boundary produces new crust on Earth, and they also can split a tectonic plate into two separate plates, or even give rise to a new continent.

<h3>Answer:</h3>

D. Plate tectonics

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The reason why answer choice "D. Plate tectonics" would be the correct answer because this was the physical process that created most of earth's physical features such as mountains.

The physical processes that create most of earth's physical features including mountains are known as <u>plate tectonics</u>.

A lot of the mountains you see today are formed by plate tectonics. What this means is that the plates that are beneath the earth's surface "hit" or "smash" each other, which makes an impact above the earth's surface.

The tectonic plates could be hitting each other while the ground in the surface starts "shoving" together and getting taller, which results as mountains you see today.

hichkok12 [17]
(Q1)
Forests throughout the world are shrinking because lots of things need wood to be made and or work. To get wood for needed or necessary things, people have to cut the trees down.
(Q2)
I think that we could have a few days out of the year where almost everyone/everyone who wants to attend can go around and plant some trees. This would help because the seeds would grow and create more trees so we could have a never ending cycle of growing trees.



Hope this helped!
