Geography
1 answer:
Akimi4 [234]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

A divergent boundary occurs when two tectonic plates move away from each other. Along these boundaries, earthquakes are common and magma (molten rock) rises from the Earth's mantle to the surface, solidifying to create a new oceanic crust. When two plates come together, it is known as a convergent boundary.

Which best describes the very next phase in our sun's life cycle?
Maslowich

Answer:

D. it will expand and become a red giant.

Explanation:

In the main phase of any star's life, hydrogen is being fused into helium inside the core. This phase takes up 90% of the star's life span, and this is the phase the sun is at now. The next phase is where it turns into a red giant. Once the hydrogen has completely turned into helium, the inert helium ash collapses on itself. Which in turn causes the core to get denser and heat up, which also expands its size. It appears red because outer surface is a lower temperature, that makes it appear red (hence the name "Red Giant")

The world population changed relatively little between the years 1200 and 1400. Which of the following statements about this tim
IRINA_888 [86]
C

Given that the World population changed little between this time, we can gather than the birth and death rates were similar, since they seem to cancel each other out from 1200-1400. To clarify, think of this. If you add something to a total (think births to population), but take away the same number (think deaths from population) you end up with the same total as before. Because of this, A is the correct answer choice (The birth rate and death rate were about equal).
