Answer:

The weather will get dryer and sunnier.

Explanation:

When a high pressure system moves over an area, the presence of descending air instead of ascending air provides stable atmospheric conditions that are <em>not favourable </em>for the formation of clouds. Because of this, high pressure systems are not associated with rainy weather.

We can't really make a prediction about exact temperature without more information, but because high pressure systems feature clearer skies, it is possible that the days are warmer and the nights are cooler than before the passage of the system. There are, of course, exceptions and in the winter a dome of frigid high pressure can keep even daytime temperatures very low.

How do ridges and rises differ? Rises are broader and more gently sloped than ridges. Divergence occurs more quickly at a ridge.

Leni [432]

Answer:

Option (3)

Explanation:

Mid-oceanic ridges are the regions along which two distinct plates move away from one another. This type of plate boundary is known as the divergent plate boundary.

Whereas a rise occurs along a divergent plate boundary and is mostly associated with the region of hot-spots, where the magma is forced to rise up forming a gently steeper underwater highland area.

Both these features occur in a divergent plate boundary and plays an important role in pushing the continents apart. So we can conclude that the rises are mostly associated with the region of hot-spots, and ridges are formed due to the seafloor spreading at divergent plate boundaries.

Hence, the correct answer is option (3).
