As plates move past each other, stress builds up. What happens when this stress becomes too much?

Biology
1 answer:
aksik [14]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The rough edges of the plates get trapped on each other as they pass. This slows the motion on the border as the remaining plates continue to move. Pressure builds up, and when the plates get too much, the hard, fractured lithosphere breaks unexpectedly, possibly resulting in an earthquake.

How do latitude elevation and local geography influence the weather
Agata [3.3K]
Latitude influences your weather by determining which type of weather systems will cross the area and how frequently, elevation influences your weather because higher elevations have lower air pressure than lower elevations, thus allowing the air to be colder on average. Local geography influences your weather due to different areas being nearby mountain ranges, bodies of water, and other things that can create or dissimilate different weather systems.

What might happen if you try to plant a tree that is native to tropical rainforests in the tundra?
Cloud [144]

Answer:

The tree will not survive due to the nature of the tundra

Explanation:

The tundra comes from a finnish word "tunturia" which means barren or treeless land. It is classified as a cold icy desert with permafrost on the ground. Unlike the tropical rain forest which is a wet climate group and is a forest of tall trees in a region of year round warmth, the tundra is cold and dry. The tundra soils are formed at high altitudes, they are usually frozen. Common plants in tundra are shrubs, herbs, lichens and grass and usually grow in groups and remain closer to the ground for prevention against cold winds. The cold nature of the tundra and its soil prevent the growth of trees because trees need to have deeper roots and they cannot grow on frozen ground.
