convection causes the asthenosphere to move. friction then moves the lithosphere above it. which geologic process is this?
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

This geological process is called Mantle drag .

What is Mantle drag?

According to the first driving mechanism, known as mantle drag, plate motion is the consequence of viscous drag brought on by the lateral motion of the tops of mantle convection cells in the asthenosphere on the base of the lithosphere . Convection cells would thus be mostly absent beneath continents, rising beneath oceanic ridges, and dropping beneath trenches. This idea states that the oceanic lithosphere would be in a state of tension at the ocean ridges and compression at the trenches.

Due to their connection to accretive and destructive plate boundaries, the horizontal widths of the convection cells causing mantle drag would be projected to be around half an ocean's breadth, or 3000 km.

Which of the following is a domestic influence on foreign policy?
LenKa [72]

The correct answer is - A famine in Ireland prompts US response.

With the Irish famine of the 19th century, and the response to it by the United States, we have a very nice example of domestic influence on foreign policy.

Namely, the Irish potato famine was so bad, that very large percentage of the Irish population actually died, and the rest of the population was on the verge of starvation. Because of this, lots of people wanted to move out of the country in order to at least be able to have food on the table. This prompted a response from the United States, and they made an exception in their strict foreign policy because of the Irish people, so opened their borders to them in order to help them, thus letting them settle in the country.
