You use highly accurate techniques to learn the time when lots and lots of different volcanic rocks solidified from melted rock.

You do this for many different rocks across the continents, and many different rocks across the sea floor. You will find that (note that "older" rocks are those that solidified more years ago, and "younger" rocks are those that solidified fewer years ago.):

Ket [755]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The sea-floor rocks are typically younger than the continental rocks, because sea-floor rocks are taken back into the mantle at subduction zones about as rapidly as new sea-floor rocks are produced, while continental rocks are not taken back into the mantle at subduction zones.

Tectonic activity happens when changes to the Earth's crust are caused by __________. A. changes to the Earth's gravity B. chang
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

C. the movement of the Earth's plates

Explanation:

The plates can be thought of like pieces of a cracked shell that rest on the hot, molten rock of Earth's mantle and fit snugly against one another. The heat from radioactive processes within the planet's interior causes the plates to move, sometimes toward and sometimes away from each other.This movement is called plate motion, or tectonic shift.

1. Which of the following is a correct description of a tornado? (1 point)
spayn [35]
<h2>Answer: Option D</h2><h2 />

Option A, "a large swirling, low-pressure system that forms over the warm Atlantic Ocean"  is incorrect because tornadoes do not form over water. That would be a hurricane.

Option B, "a winter storm with wind speeds of at least 56 km/h and low visibility" Is incorrect because tornadoes do not form in cold weather. That would be a blizzard.

Oa boundary between two air masses of different density, moisture, or temperature​ption C, "a violently rotating column of air in contact with the ground" is correct <u>because tornadoes are columns of air that rotate due to warm air and cold air colliding.</u> They usually occur during a thunderstorm.

Option D, "a boundary between two air masses of different density, moisture, or temperature​" is incorrect because tornadoes are not based on air mass, density, moisture, or temperature. This would be a front.

Which statements describe Wegener’s ideas that became known as the theory of continental drift? Check all that apply.
yarga [219]

Answer:

Options (1), (2) and (3)

Explanation:

Alfred Wegener was the person who first invented the continental drift theory.  He observed that the continents move from one place to another with respect to a fixed point. He put forward many pieces of evidence but he was unable to explain the main mechanism that is responsible for these motion of continents.

The pieces of evidence that were given by Alfred Wegener supporting the continental drift theory are-

(a) The continents move slowly and continuously from one place to another and the edges of these continents perfectly match with the other.

(b) Similar fossil assemblages were found in currently separated continents.

(c) Similar rock types are also found and suggested that the continents were once all together forming a huge landmass which is known as the Pangaea.

Later this theory was modified into a more simple and universally accepted theory which is commonly known as the Plate tectonic theory.

Hence, the correct answers are options (1), (2) and (3).

Why did the British issue the Balfour Declaration?
sweet-ann [11.9K]

☁️ Answer ☁️

☕ the reason why Britain issued the Balfour Declaration was because it was used as a device to keep the Jewish population out of Britain through the adoption of the Alien Act in 1905 and the anti- Semitic attitude that was fostered by the British government and the British people. ☕

Hope it helps.
