The subduction in the Mediterranean region has halted because the African tectonic plate has reached the harder crustal part of the Eurasian tectonic plate. Because both of the plates have a same crustal density, there's no subduction anymore, but instead, there's a collision that will start to slowly lift the area around the collision line, and in time that will create a very high and very long mountain range, similar to the Himalayas in Asia.
Answer:
A. Southwest
Explanation:
If we have coordinates of 14.5 N, 49.5 E as a starting point and we want to go the the coordinates of 10 N, 45 E, then we will move in a southwestern direction. This is fairly easy to explain 14.5 N is further north than 10 N, as the greater the number, the greater the distance from the Equator, so 10 N is located on the south of 14.5 N. 49.5 E is further east than 45 E, again with the same principle, the greater the number, the further away it is from the Prime Meridian, so 45 E is west of 49.5 E. Since we have 10 N being south of 14.5 N, and 45 E being west of 49.5 E, if we make a line it will come to be a diagonal in a southwestern direction.
