Answer:The distribution of earthquakes across the globe is shown in Figure 11.7. It is relatively easy to see the relationships between earthquakes and the plate boundaries. Along divergent boundaries like the mid-Atlantic ridge and the East Pacific Rise, earthquakes are common, but restricted to a narrow zone close to the ridge, and consistently at less than 30 km depth. Shallow earthquakes are also common along transform faults, such as the San Andreas Fault. Along subduction zones, as we saw in Chapter 10, earthquakes are very abundant, and they are increasingly deep on the landward side of the subduction zone.
General distribution of global earthquakes
Figure 11.7 General distribution of global earthquakes of magnitude 4 and greater from 2004 to 2011, colour coded by depth (red: 0-33 km, orange 33-70 km, green: 70-300 km, blue: 300-700 km)
Explanation:
I think the sentence that combines the idea is :
D. the football player did not seem seriously injured, yet as a precaution, the trainers moved him carefully
This sentence combined 2 separate occurrences into one sentence correctly

Answer:
<u>My father drove up to the theater. I stepped out of the car. </u>Would it be a great show? Or would I forget all my lines? I had rehearsed every night, and my sister had even helped with the hardest scenes. Would all that hard work pay off? Some people waited at the ticket booth, while others were going inside. My stomach felt like it was full of frogs, but I headed to the stage door anyway. The cast was counting on me, and I couldn't let them down.
Explanation:
Run-on sentences are sentences that consist of two or more incorrectly connected independent clauses. A common type of a run-on sentence is a comma splice, which occurs when independent clauses are connected only by a comma.
You can correct run-on sentences by adding a:
- semicolon
- comma and coordinating conjunction - <em>The cast was counting on me, and I couldn't let them down.</em>
- comma and subordinating conjunction -<em> Some people waited at the ticket booth, while others were going inside.</em>
You can also divide the run-on sentence into two or more separate sentences: <em>My father drove up to the theater. I stepped out of the car.</em>
