Abyssal plains are large, flat features that cover about ________ of the planet.
spin [16.1K]

Abyssal plains are large, flat features that cover about one third of the planet.

<h3>What are Abyssal plains?</h3>
  • The broad, flat, sediment-covered regions of the deep ocean floor are known as abyssal plains.
  • They have a slope of less than one foot of height variation for every thousand feet of travel, making them the flattest, featureless places on Earth.
  • When tectonic plates separate, magma rises and forms new crust, filling the space that was left between the plates.
  • When sediments from the shoreline pass over the continental shelf, tumble down the continental slope, and deposit on top of the more recent oceanic crust, they create an abyssal plane.

The map above uses a particular projection to display the world’s continents. Which of the following statements about this map i
Airida [17]

The false statement is -  B. This map projection does not distort shapes.

The map shown on the image is a Mollweide projection map. This is a map that has an elliptical shape, unlike most of the maps that have a rectangular shape. It is a map that pretty accurately manages to depict the Earth's continents with their right sizes.

Unfortunately, it can not be said that the map is without flaws. It is a map that has distortions, as all the others do, but it is still a map where the distortions are very small, thus the depiction is much accurate than on most of the other map projections.

You watch a volcano erupt non-explosively, then 5 days later you see it erupt explosively.
alexdok [17]

D. high and low levels of silica in the different type of lava.

Explanation:

The volcanoes have different types of explosions. Some tend to be highly explosive, some less explosive, some don't have explosions at all, while some have combinations of different eruptions. The reason for this diversity in the eruption types is mostly the composition of the magma, or rather how high is the silica content in it.

Basically, the higher the silica level in the magma the higher the explosiveness, and the lower the silica level the lower the chances of explosiveness. This is the case because the higher amount of silica makes the magma thicker, so the gasses are trapped and they explode, while when the lower silica content makes the magma less thick, so the gasses are not trapped and explosions are lacking.

Bamboo is and ecologically friendly choice for hardwood flooring and furniture.<br> True or False
stellarik [79]
F (here's why) Bamboo isn't as thick as you think...
You would have to cut a bunch of them down just to have a 10 by 9 foot flooring. You CAN NOT curve wood what-so-ever. That's a big risk you're taking. It is likely to have one pound of changing balance and it will fall.

HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND BEFORE YOU END UP GETTING YOURSELF KILLED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
