How does the internal structure of the earth influence the creation of the continents, ocean, and the mountain range

Well the topmost layer of the earth (aside from the atmospher) would be the crust. It is made up of tectonic plates that move in different directions. The collisons and abrasions made by these plates sliding and crashing into each other means that mountain ranges pop up like wrinkles, and continents can move around over time. This happens over millions of years.

The main source of heat of the earth that keeps plasticity the mantle is earth’s radioactive core. The part of the mantle close to the core is hotter than that closer to the crust. Therefore, the mantle has convectional currents. These currents drag with them the earth crust above and hence tectonic plate movements. At convergent boundaries, the earth's crust is pressed onto one another to form fold mountains such as the Himalayas. At divergent boundaries, faulting occurs and the subsequent crust depression is filled with water to form oceans.

The ""normal"" high temperature for a given day is determined from the ____ averaged high temperature for that day. a. 30-year b

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer: 30 year

Explanation:

The normal high temperature for a given day determined by the temperature of a place averaged over a period of time, often 30 years. This is also described as climate information. Climate information includes the statistical weather information that tells us about the normal weather, and also the range of weather extremes for a location. Most weather forecasters rely of past weather to predict the normal high temperature of a given day.

The average high or low temperature is the normalized high or low temperature for at least a 30 year period. Therefore, an average high is a statistical average. Records need to be kept at least 30 years for an average high temperature, for the information to be statistically meaningful.
