Appalachian: A. Two continents colliding.
The Appalachian mountain range is an ancient example of a collision between two continental plates. Both plates have low density and little subduction occurs between them.
North American Cordillera: B. Terrane accretion
These form when two continents that collided bonded so tight that it forms a permanent land mass. If the continents would pull away from each other, the terrane stays intact.
Aleutian plate: D. Oceanic convergence
This is a type of convergence where one plate subducts beneath another plate. Between the two, the older plate is usually the one that subducts because it is usually more dense.
Andes mountain range: C. An oceanic plate and continental plate colliding.
In the collision between an oceanic and continental plate, the thinner and more dense oceanic plate subducts under the continental plate. The Andes mountain range was formed by the subduction of the Nazca Plate beneath the South american Plate.
The type of muscle that is responsible for maintain posture is VOLUNTARY. The correct option is B. Skeletal muscles are the ones who control posture and movement and they are voluntary in nature, that is, they are under the conscious control of man. The muscles that are responsible for maintain posture are: spinal, pelvic and abdominal muscles, hip muscles, lower leg muscles and shoulder and neck muscles.
Answer:
A-color
Explanation:
Minerals could have the same color, and you can't depend on color to tell you that.
The answer is NO. This is because different environments require different adaptations. A desirable trait in one environment may be inconsequential or detrimental in another environment. This is the reason also why evolution is continuous as natural selection acts on traits of a population to ensure desirable traits are retained with changes in the environment in a dynamic world.
Answer:
It's always associated with motion
It can be transferred from one object or body to another
Explanation:
Kinetic energy is the energy due to motion of a body.
- Moving objects possess kinetic energy which is resident in that body.
- As with other forms of energy, it can be transferred from one body to another.
- Kinetic energy can express itself as thermal energy, electrical energy, mechanical energy etc..
- As a body moves, the kinetic energy is increases.
