Answer:

1. volcanoes and earthquakes

2. ridge push

3. mountain building

4. trench formation

5. slab pull

6. subduction

Explanation:

1. volcanoes and earthquakes: An earthquake is a product of friction on the edge of tectonic plates. A volcanic process can be a product of the subduction of tectonic plates, volcanoes also usually form at the borders of tectonic plates, at divergent borders and at convergence borders

2. ridge push:  is a proposed driving force for plate motion in plate tectonics that occurs at mid-ocean ridges.

3. mountain building:They are formed when the tectonic plates fold back or roll up, generating alterations in the earth's crust and giving rise to the elevations

4. trench formation: Trenches are formed by subduction, because two or more of Earth's tectonic plates converge and the older, denser plate is pushed beneath the lighter plate and deep into the mantle, causing the seafloor and outermost crust (the lithosphere) to bend and form a steep, V-shaped depression.

5.slab pull: Slab pull is that part of the motion of a tectonic plate caused by its subduction.

6.Subduction:  

An oceanic lithospheric plate sinks under another plate, either oceanic or continental. In this way the mountain range of the Andes was formed

Why is the SI measurement system so important to the scientific community
Radda [10]

Answer:

without the ability to measure, it would be difficult for scientists to conduct experiment of form theories and also the chemical industry, it is also essential in farming, engineering, construction, manufacturing, commerce and numerous other occupation and activities.

Match the mountain range with its formation. 1. Appalachian 2. North American Cordillera 3. Aleutian 4. Andes A. Two continents
melisa1 [442]

Appalachian: A. Two continents colliding.


The Appalachian mountain range is an ancient example of a collision between two continental plates. Both plates have low density and little subduction occurs between them.


North American Cordillera: B. Terrane accretion


These form when two continents that collided bonded so tight that it forms a permanent land mass. If the continents would pull away from each other, the terrane stays intact.


Aleutian plate: D. Oceanic convergence


This is a type of convergence where one plate subducts beneath another plate. Between the two, the older plate is usually the one that subducts because it is usually more dense.


Andes mountain range: C. An oceanic plate and continental plate colliding.


In the collision between an oceanic and continental plate, the thinner and more dense oceanic plate subducts under the continental plate. The Andes mountain range was formed by the subduction of the Nazca Plate beneath the South american Plate.
