liq [111]

Answer:

landslide

Explanation:

This question is related to a picture. In the picture you can see that a small town was affected by a landslide located near a steep hill. As the statement reads, it can be a destructive process as not only is the countryside affected by removal of the top earth layer along with all the vegetation in that area, consequence of heavy rainfall or a mayor earthquake or shift in landmass, but it also turns into a constructive process as at the bottom of the hill, where the landslide or mud accumulates, the debris forms a new layer over the old and it is then seen as constructive.

(1) Plate tectonics envisions the Earth divided into dozens of lithospheric plates that move about and interact with one another
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Transform boundary.

Explanation:

The three main configurations of the tectonic plates are the divergent limits, convergent limits and transform boundary.

Transform boundary occurs when two plates move towards each other, colliding and forming cracks in both. These cracks do not cause the destruction of these plates, so it does not promote the creation of other plates, but it does cause flaws, which can even generate flaws on the earth's surface. An example of this occurred with the Pacific plates and the North American plate that caused the San Andres fault in California.

The correct answer is - D. all of the above.

In essence, spatial terms in geography refers to the describing of things that are relating to areas.

Population can be seen area by area, so that the density, ethnicity, education etc can be seen and compared between areas. The trade flows usually are divided into trade zones, or trade areas, and cities and towns all belong to a certain area.
