Answer: A constructive plate boundary creates ridges

Explanation: A constructive plate boundary, sometimes called a divergent plate margin, occurs when two tectonic plates move apart. Volcanoes are formed as magma wells up to fill the gap and molten rocks from the mantle below spread out and harden, eventually forming a ridge of new land/rock. The Mid-Atlantic ridge is an example of a constructive plate boundary.

Using complete sentences, compare and contrast three aspects of growth in Eastern cities and Western cities in the United States
lianna [129]
There were a lot of cities back in the east, and populations were rising. People began moving west and building farms, raising cattle, and other animals. Originally, people arrived in the east by ship (from England etc.), but when people traveled to the west they went by wagon trains. In the south people grew things like cotton, sweet potatoes, tobacco, and sugar, while in the west they grew things like apples trees, wheat, and raised herds.
In the west they build small, compact log cabins, while in the east there were factories, larger brick buildings, and marinas for traded good from other countries.
That is how growth differed in the east cities and the west.
summary;
1. People who traveled to the west started from the east. But those people from the east originally came from England, who then settled in the eastern United States. 2. The mode of transportation to their new lives was different, (ship vs. wagon train.) 3. Log cabins in the west vs. larger bricked buildings in the north east.
