What is the cause of the plate tectonic activity?

Biology
2 answers:
matrenka [14]2 years ago

Plate tectonic activity is caused by thermal convection, where heat from the Earth's interior causes currents of hot rising magma and cooler sinking magma to flow, moving the plates of the crust along with them.

Plate tectonics is primarily caused by Earth's cooling mechanism, which generates convection currents in the planet's mantle that trigger slow but constant tectonic plate movement

Breathing is the function of our body to let air flow to the lungs. It is important because it serves the purpose of bringing the amount of oxygen the body needs to work properly, and flushing out the toxic substances our body produces.

The diaphragm also plays its important role in respiratory system because it creates more space in our chest cavity, allowing the lungs to expand when we inhale.

The larynx connects the naso- and oro- pharynx with the trachea, functioning in air conduction, vocalisation and in obstructing passage of ingesta into the trachea during deglutition. The trachea divides into left and right mainstream bronchi. Bronchi give away to smaller conducting airways, bronchioles.

The walls of the alveoli share a membrane with the capillaries, this relatively lets the oxygen and carbon dioxide diffuse between the respiratory system and bloodstream. They bring oxygen into our body through inhalation and send carbon dioxide out called exhalation and overall process is respiration

Pneumonia is a life threatening illness because if our lungs is filled with fluid then they won’t be able to function normally and won’t be able to transfer enough oxygen to your blood or get rid of the carbon dioxide in our bloodstream

In which type of front is the flow of air on both sides of the front almost parallel to the line of the front?
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer: the answer is B which is stationary

Explanation:

This type of front behaves like a warm front only that it is quiescent because the front barely shifts its position. The weather may also be similar to that of a warm front. The two abutting air masses run almost parallel to the front because none is stronger than the other to cause displacement.
