In-s [12.5K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

If the contour lines are close together it means that the change in elevation is very steep.

Explanation:

A is not correct because if the topography is almost flat, the contour lines would be very far apart.

B is correct because the closer the contour lines are, the steeper the topography is, meaning that the terrain is very steep.

C is not correct because if the elevation is not changing, the contour lines will be missing from that part of the map.

Which one of the following most accurately describes the volcanoes of the Hawaiian Islands?
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Option C.

Volcanoes are associated with subduction and a convergent plate boundary

Explanation:

Subduction zone in volcanism occurs in a situation where two tectonic plates are converging on one another. One plate which contains oceanic lithosphere descends beneath the adjacent plate. This makes the oceanic lithosphere to be consumed into the crust.

Most Volcanoes in Hawaii are formed through subduction. This is shown by the presence of subduction zones in the region.

Thus option C is correct

What can scientists learn from magnetic striping patterns? Select the three correct answers.(2 points)
kari74 [83]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

What can scientists learn from magnetic striping patterns? Select the three correct answers.

1. the cause of magnetic pole reversals

2. the year the next magnetic reversal will take place

3. the location of ancient faults caused by seismic activity

4. the exact location of the next earthquake along the California coast

5. the direction plates are moving relative to each other

6. the speed of one plate as it subducts below another plate

Answer:

The direction plates are moving relative to each other

The speed of one plate as it subducts below another plate

The location of ancient faults caused by seismic activity

Explanation:

Magnetic striping patterns are very valuable systems for understanding the factors that promote polar variability of the ocean floor. This is because these systems are formed exactly by changes in this polarity, presenting lines (similar to a zebra), which allow scientists to interpret them and have valuable information about the movement of the direction plates towards each other, the speed that a plate reaches the subduz below another plate and the location and old faults that were caused by the existence of seismic activities.
