B. build up a mountain over time.

Explanation:

The magma that reaches the surface and cools will often build up a mountain over time.

They would form a chain of extrusive igneous rocks on the surface leading to continental volcanic activities.

  • As the subducting Juan de Fuca Plate moves underneath, it begins to melt at great depths.
  • Cracks within the lithosphere will act as conduit for this magma to be brought to the earth surface.
  • They will then cool, and solidify and build mountain ranges with time.

What are glaciers? A glacier is a huge mass of ice that moves slowly over land.
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

What do they look like?

Glaciers look like solid blocks of ice.

What climate do they exist in?

Regions that have high snowfall in winter and cool temperatures in summer.

Where can you find them?

Most of the world's glacial ice is found in Antarctica and Greenland, but glaciers are found on nearly every continent, even Africa.

What do you think we can learn from glaciers?

Glaciers preserve bits of atmosphere from thousands of years ago in these tiny air bubbles, or, deeper within the core, trapped within the ice itself. This is one way scientists know that there have been several Ice Ages. Scientists are also finding that glaciers reveal clues about global warming.

(The last question is unclear to me, so I'm going to take a guess as to what you meant)

Why is sea ice so important?

Arctic sea ice keeps the polar regions cool and helps moderate global climate.

I hope this helps!! :3
