Answer:
Volcanoes may form at a fault where a transform fault exists is not a true statement.
Explanation:
olcThe volcanoes can be found across the globe, in most of the regions. What can be noticed though is that there is a high concentration of volcanoes a certain places, while there is much less or lacking in others. The places where there is high concetration of volcanoes are along the divergent and convergent plate boundaries, with isolated volcanic chains in the interior of the plates caused by hot spots.
The places where volcanoes are lacking, except the vast majority of the interior of the plates, are the transform plate boundaries. The reason for this is that at these plate boundaries the plates don't create a gap between each other and make the crust thinner so that magma can move toward the surface, instead, they slide past each other, thus create pressure between each other, which would make it even harder for magma to come out on the surface than in an interior of a plate.
Answer:
B. Some of the great contributors to advancement in the United States were immigrants
Explanation:
The United States is a country of immigrants, so using the term immigrants for people that moved slightly later in the country is kind of debatable. Anyway, the later immigrants in the United States had a huge impact on the country, mostly positive.
- The immigrants provided extra labor force which was in high demand, especially with the industry constantly growing.
- Numerous immigrants were people with great ideas, managing to invent new things that led to a rapid development of the United States and making them a global power. A prime example of this is the Croatian Nikola Tesla.
- The large numbers of immigrants resulted in rapid population increase, which also provided the United States with extra military power, which was crucial for its survival, interests, and further actions.
