Occasionally earthquakes occur as a result of collisions along oceanic-continental convergent boundaries. Where do these earthqu
Valentin [98]

Answer:

 on land but close to oceans

Explanation:

A boundary between an oceanic plate and a continental plate will be near a coastline., not "far from the coast" or "in the middle of oceans."

Often, mountains are also near that boundary, but mountains may also exist elsewhere, so "anywhere there are mountains" is not an apt description.

The best choice is "on land but close to oceans."

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The 2011 Tohoku earthquake near Japan was offshore by 67 km. It came from the subduction zone where the Pacific plate dives beneath the Eurasian plate. It is an example of a plate boundary quake that occurred offshore, rather than on land.

The way of transferring heat in that warm air rises in daytime is__.
Lunna [17]

Answer:

Option (3)

Explanation:

In a region where the temperature is high, the air gets heated up. As a result of which the air becomes warm and less dense and rises up into the atmosphere forming a low pressure zone. This air when rises up, it experiences a cooler temperature and gets cooled. This cooling allows the air mass to become dense and starts condensing. It then precipitates in the form of rainfall. This motion of air particles in the atmosphere forms a convection, that is similar to the one that forms in the mantle layer of the earth.

Thus, the warm air transfers heat forming convections.

Hence, the correct answer is option (3).

What was the goal of revolutionary forces in Germany after the war? Did they achieve their goals?
adell [148]
The main goal of the revolutionary forces in Germany after the war was to totally remove the Nazi system from most countries of Europe. This was a time in history known as the Great Holocaust where a lot of innocent blood was shed because of the "cleansing" that Adolf Hitler commanded. Thousands of Jews were killed because of this and as a result many have revolted against the Germans and other foreign countries intervened to end this, particularly the United States of America. They gave aid to the Europeans after the war.
