Mountains are rich in natural resources, but they also block movement and trade and isolate regions and people.
The Hawaiian Islands are formed on a region of intra plate volcanic activity on the Pacific plate. This region is known as a hot spot. Scientists are not exactly sure what causes this but they do know that a plume of magma rises through the mantle and forces it's way through the crust to form submarine volcanoes and over time volcanic islands.
The magma that rises here originates from the mantle and not crustal melt and so forms basic or basaltic lava.
Answer:
An open circuit is one where the continuity has been broken by an interruption in the path for current to flow. A closed circuit is one that is complete, with good continuity throughout.
Explanation:
For instance, a simple light switch opens and closes the circuit that connects a light to a power source. When you build a circuit, it's a good idea to disconnect the battery or other power source when the circuit is not in use.
