Answer:
2. the line separating Australian animal species from non-Australian species
Explanation:
The Wallace line is an animal boundary line drawn by Alfred Wallace that separates Australian fauna species from non-Australian fauna species. It's a transitional zone between Austrialia and the Asia continent. The animals found in south East Asia is so much different from those found in Australia, hence the line drawn. The line is just one of the many biogeographical borders in the world separating geographical regions with not so similar group of plants and animals.
Answer:
Correct answer is: Due to interaction between Pacific and North American plate.
Explanation:
Mountain Redoubt is located in south Alaska. Mentioned mountain is in the vicinity of convergent plate boundary between North American and Pacific plate.
Convergent boundary means that those plates are <em>colliding</em>. One plate always slides beneath another, and in this case Pacific plate slides beneath North American. Area of collision is known as subduction zone.
Pacific plate is oceanic plate, and North American is continental plate. Oceanic plates <u>always slides</u> beneath continental ones. Reason for that is due to their density. Oceanic plates are denser, so they go under continental ones.
Pacific and North American plate interaction is typicall oceanic-continetal boundary where <em>earthquakes</em> (seismic activity) and <em>active volcanoes</em> are common. Some of the strongest earthquakes happened in this area. That was in 1964 in Prince William Sound in the south coast of Alaska. Magnitude was 9.2M, second strongest quake ever recorded in world's history.
