Geography
2 answers:
k0ka [10]4 years ago

The correct answer is - a. land to sink.

Mexico City is a very city, it is fact the second largest city in the world. It's sheer size means that all the things built by the people are putting a lot of pressure on the land itself.

Considering the fact that Mexico City is built on a place where until relatively recently there was a lake is a big concern. The soil is very soft for starters, and also there's lot of groundwater reserves very close to the surface. By removing the groundwater, big gaps, empty spaces, inside the ground, and close to the surface, are opening. The soft sediments are not able to sustain the pressure, so the land is sinking.

Ugo [173]

Answer:

b. more felsic

Explanation:

The sequnce of crsytallization of magma  as , first is the ultramafic which is at at very high temperature ,  then is mafic at intermediate temperature , and felsic at lowest lowest temperature , at the final stage .

Hence , the composition of earth beneath the surface is like mafic while the surface has felsic .

When the crystallizing magma is assimilated  or contaminated with the crystal rock and then the magma enhances the light color or the felsic minerals added into magma due to the assimilation of the crystal rocks .

Therefore , the magma increases the felsic nature via assimilation .

Now , When a rock undergoes partial melting , then low temperature or light color minerals released first into melts and hence , becomes more felsic .
