( 1 Why does a democratic country need a Constitution?​
aksik [14]

Well, one reason a democratic country needs a constitution is because it tells us the fundamental nature of our society.

Fundamental - Forming a necessary base or core; of central importance

A Constitution helps serve as a set of rules and principles that all persons in a country can agree upon as the basis of the way in which they want the country to be governed.

A Constitution is necessary because it is an important law of the land. It determines the relationship of the citizens with the governments. It specifies on how the Government would be elected and who will have the power and the responsibility to take important decisions.

What are the different ways tectonic plates move in relation to each other?
____ [38]

Answer:

The plates converge, diverge or move past each other (sideways)

Explanation:

The earth crust is divided into different tectonic plates. The manner and way this separated plates moves determines the earth structure and topology of the earth. Even this movement causes hazardous event like volcanic eruption.

The plates movement can be converging, diverging or moving past each other .

Convergence occur when two plates collides with each other . The boundary where this phenomenon takes place is called the convergent boundary. The colliding of this plates causes earth deformation and extensive uprising . In the case where a continental plates collides the collision produces mountains . The continental plates are less dense and very active. Continental plates contains more of granitic rocks and this is what contributes to their less dense nature. The collision of  this active plates causes an up-welling to form mountain belts . The highest mountain(mountain Everest) was formed through this process. There can also be convergence when oceanic plates collides with a continental plates. The more dense oceanic plates subduct , this subduction leads to introduction of molten magma to the earth surface through volcanic eruption.

At the divergence boundary , two plates move away from each other . This divergent boundary is dominant in the oceanic crust . It can also occur in the continental crust. The plates diverge into two parts . The mid oceanic ridge forming the point of separation. Volcanic eruption introduces magma through the crest of the oceanic ridge to form a new crust.

At the transform boundary, plates moves past each other in a side way manner. The transform movement produces many faults. example San Andrea Fault.
