Most earth plates are underwater, and that is why the sea is so dangerous. It is the caused of great waves in the ocean. When the plates overlap each other, they cause small islands to appear.  It is also sucking up land  under water, because of volcanoes which spit out land.

Why can't humans use more than 9% of their brain bainliest if right
larisa [96]

Answer:

the 9 percent claim is demonstrably false on a number of levels. First, the entire brain is active all the time. The brain is an organ. Its living neurons, and the cells that support them, are always doing something. (Where’s the “you only use 9 percent of your spleen” myth?) Joe LeDoux, a professor of neuroscience and psychology at NYU, thinks that people today may be thrown off by the “blobs”—the dispersed markers of high brain activity—seen in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) of the human brain. These blobs are often what people are talking about when they refer to the brain “lighting up.”

Say you’re watching a movie in an fMRI scanner. Certain areas of your brain—the auditory and visual cortices, for instance—will be significantly more active than others; and that activity will show up as colored splotches when the fMRI images are later analyzed. These blobs of significant activity usually cover small portions of the brain image, often less than 10 percent, which could make it seem, to the casual observer, that the rest of the brain is idling. But, as LeDoux put it to me in an email, “the brain could be one hundred percent active during a task with only a small percentage of brain activity unique to the task.” This kind of imaging highlights big differences in regional brain activity, not everything the brain is doing.

In fact, the entire premise of only “using” a certain proportion of your brain is misguided. When your brain works on a problem—turning light that hits your retina into an image, or preparing to reach for a pint of beer, or solving an algebra problem—its effectiveness is as much a question of “where” and “when” as it is of “how much.” Certain regions of the brain are more specialized than others to deal with certain tasks, and most behavior depends on tight temporal coordination between those regions. Your visual system helps you locate that pint of beer, and your motor system gets your hand around it. The idea that swaths of the brain are stagnant pudding while one section does all the work is silly. The brain is a complex, constantly multi-tasking network of tissue.

Like other major cities, Los Angeles has experienced violence and civil unrest. Why did Los Angeles experience riots in 1992? Qu
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

The Los Angeles riots of 1992 were a series of serious riots, looting, and arson that took place in Los Angeles County, California in 1992. These were the largest riots in the United States since the 1967 Detroit riots, the largest in Los Angeles since the 1965 Watts riots, and the riots with the highest number of deaths since the 1863 riots in New York.

The riots began on April 29, 1992, when a jury acquitted four white policemen accused of beating a black taxi driver Rodney King, who resisted to be arrested. A video showing King being beaten by police officers was released to the media. As a result, thousands of African American citizens in Los Angeles, considering the verdict as unfair, took to the streets. The riots lasted six days. The crowd carried out thefts, assaults and arson, with losses estimated at over 1 billion dollars. Peace on the streets was restored only after members of the National Guard of California, 7th Infantry Division and the 1st Maritime Division were called to prevent further riots when the local police were unable to control the situation. In total, 63 people were killed during the riots, 2,383 people were injured, over 12,000 were arrested and 3,767 buildings were burned.

Which of the following are characteristics of a line?
Bess [88]

Answer:

Characteristics of a line are the length and that it contains more than one point.

Explanation:

A is correct because the line is measured only in length, as it doesn't have width, angles, etc.

B is correct because the line doesn't possess properties suitable for a volume to measured of it.

C is not correct because a line doesn't produce any sort of power or energy, thus we can not associate it with velocity.

D is not correct because the line doesn't have weight.

E is correct because a line represents numerous points that are connected with each other, thus a line contains more than one point.
