At some convergent boundaries, an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate. Oceanic crust tends to be denser and thinner than continental crust, so the denser oceanic crust gets bent and pulled under, or subducted, beneath the lighter and thicker continental crust. This forms what is called a subduction zone.
Answer:
True.
Explanation:
There are different explanations for Mordecai’s refusal to kneel and bow before Haman. The text says that Mordecai did not kneel before Haman because he was a Jew. It is possible that Mordecai refused to bow to Haman because he was an Amalekite, since the Jews and the Amalekites had been enemies for centuries.

Yes.
Explanation:
In this region we see that faulting has occurred. Because the rock strata are not lined up with one another across the entire region, it is clear that the land has faulted and the the two edge blocks have slipped downwards leaving the middle block uplifted or that the middle block has been pushed upwards.
These two types of faulting are called normal faulting and reverse faulting. They are the result of tension and compression stresses, respectively, that pull and compress the rocks creating fractures called faults. If the stress is sufficient, the outer blocks slide downward or the middle block is uplifted.
