Complete question is;
What features of ocean basins are chains of basaltic rock that stretch more than 1.5 times Earth's circumference around the world at spreading centers?
Answer:
Oceanic ridges
Explanation:
The answer is oceanic ridges because they occur along divergent plate boundaries, where new ocean floor is formed as a result of the tectonic plates of the earth spreading apart. This separation leads to rise of molten rocks to the seafloor thereby producing very huge basaltic volcanic eruptions.
Answer:
The North Atlantic Drift brings warmer water closer to the coast of Europe than to Canada.
Explanation:
The British Isles are located on the same latitude as some parts of Canada, but when we think of the two, the British Isles are known for having a moderate climate while the same areas in Canada are known for their harsh and cold climate. The reason for this is the influence of the ocean currents but also the size of the territories of the two.
The British Isles are not large, and they are under the influence of the North Atlantic Drift, a warm ocean current that brings in a warmer and wetter climate, thus keeping the climate much warmer and much wetter than other parts of the world on the same latitude. The cities in Canada that are on the same latitude as the British Isles have a much harsher climate, with the temperatures being much lower and there is also less precipitation. The primary reason for this is that Canada's coastline on the Atlantic is influenced by the cold Labrador ocean current which brings in cold and dry weather. Big influence has the enormous size of the country, so the continental influence in the dominant one in the interior, thus making the climate conditions much more extreme.
Answer:
A) Most amplitude and Most compression.
Explanation:
- A Sound wave is the longitudinal waves that can be caused or created by vibration and that travel through the medium.
- In the longitudinal wave, Where the wave travels the particles of the medium vibrate in the same direction.
- As the wave passes through the medium its all particles compress together and then spread it out
Answer:
Weather report of the states shows dry, cold and mild wet weather.
Explanation:
The weather of many states remain dry and sunny so no chance of rain in the next 24 hours while the northern regions have cold and snowy weather so stay in your houses and avoid going outside of your home if not necessary. Some regions on the west and south experience mild wet climate so it is advice to take umbrella with you due to high possibility of rainfall.
If you're referring to streams/rivers of water that run independently of another source in the ocean these are referred to as "currents" and can be very powerful depending on their location.
