How might the surface landscape above a laccolith look?

Geography

Answer:

It would look like an uplift or dome because the laccolith below is a lens-shaped mass of magma that pushes the rock above it upward.

Explanation:

The laccolith is formed by volcanic activity. Not all of the magma is contracted in the volcano and comes out form it or solidifies in it. Some of the magma actually moves below ground in the surrounding area, using the cracks as pathways. When this magma cools off deep underground it creates intrusions.

One of those intrusions is the laccolith. The laccolith can be described as having a lens-shape, or that it looks like a mushroom. The laccolith is in intrusion that pushes the crust upwards, so the surface above it uplifts or looks like a dome that sticks out in its surroundings.

The laccolith may come out eventually on the surface because of the weathering and erosion, but for that to happen usually millions of years are needed.

What are the four countries with the largest land areas in the western hemisphere?
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

Canada, United States, Brazil, Argentina

Explanation:

The four largest countries by area in the Western Hemisphere are Canada, United States, Brazil, and Argentina. These countries are located in North and South America, with Canada and the United States being in North America, while Brazil and Argentina being in South America. All of these countries are in the top 10 largest countries in the world by area, with Canada being on the second place, the United States on third, Brazil fifth, and Argentina eight. One of the main reasons why these countries are so large is because they are countries of the New World, all being former colonies, where the populations where relatively small, but the European settlers managed to occupy very large areas. Once they gained independence, the boundaries were set in accordance to the colonial boundaries, so instead of having numerous smaller countries divided because of ethnicity, race, or culture, large multiracial, multiethnic, multicultural countries were established.
