Answer:
4cm because the wavelength is the measure of a distance between two identical peaks or Crest
Answer:
The correct answer is B. <em>Philippine plate converging with the Pacific plate, forming Mariana Islands in the Pacific Ocean</em>
Explanation:
When two oceanic plates collide, it occurs oceanic convergence. The thicker and older plate subduces under the other plate, and at this point, it starts the volcanic activity. As the thicker plate descends, it is heated and melted and its materials are incorporated into the mantle. The fast subduction originates magma that ascends to the surface by crevices. This makes place to the formation of grouped volcanic islands, the island arches. Subduction zones coincide with deep-sea trenches or depressions in the ocean bed. The volcanic islands are arranged in a circumference arch shape, which is bordered by a fossa. Most of these are located in the western Pacific, where the pacific crust is older and thicker, and hence it submerges easier in the mantle.
The Mariana Islands in the Pacific Ocean are examples of these volcanic islands.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
It occurs over many generations.
It happens at the genetic level.
<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
- <em><u>Evolution is the process that involves change in the inherited traits of a population over generations. </u></em>
- <em><u>The traits involved are the expressions of genes that are copied and passed from the parents to the offspring during reproduction process. Mutations in these genes results to new traits and thus heritable differences among organisms.</u></em>
- <em><u>Therefore, evolution will only occur when there is change in gene frequency within a population over a given period of time. Genetic differences that are heritable are passed to the next generation.</u></em>
