As the two plates collide,the denserr oceanic plate will subduct under the less dense continential plate, causing the continential plate to arch up and form a mountain range.
Let's look into it one by one:
A. An underwater mountain range will will run along the boundary on the oceanic plate. - This is false.
As the oceanic plate subducts under the continential plate, there is no chance for the denser material to accumulate while subducting. What would be find instead is ocean trench.
B. A mountain range will form in the middle of the continental plate. - This is false.
Although pressure will be applied and there would be stress accumulating on the continential plate, the middle is very unlikely to be affected.
C. A mountain range will run along the boundary on the continental plate. - This is true.
As the subduction happens, the continential plate will accumulate as it is less dense. The rock would fold up to form mountain ranges. For example, Rockies is one off the mountain range along the plate.
D. A chain of islands will form along the boundary of the oceanic plate. - This is false.
Similarly to A. it is not possible for the plate to accumulate when it slides under the other plate.
Therefore the answer is C. A mountain range will run along the boundary on the continental plate.

Answer: The El Nino Southern Oscillation, a periodic warming and cooling of the surface waters of the central and eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean, is an ongoing cycle of long duration. That is, as far back as weather records go, there is evidence of this seasonal variation.

Answer:
Well, the deepest hole humans have ever dug was about 7.5 miles deep, in Murmansk, Russia. We should care about what is beneath our feet because something terrible could be afoot. For example, there could be some kind of anomaly under a heavily populated city. This anomaly could range from anything such as volcanic activity to instability in the ground on which the city is built. We should care about what is in the earth to make sure human life is not somehow endangered by something under our feet. I hope this helps!
