Answer:

Tectonic plates shift in diffrent ways

Explanation:

Transform--where plates essentially grind past each other with no subduction.

Convergent--where plates collide. Oceanic plate to oceanic plate convergence will result in the more dense plate subducting under the less dense plate.

Divergent--where plates move apart. The major diverging plates are located at the mid-ocean ridge system where melting material from the asthenosphere fills in the separating plate zone, creating new crust.

There you go.

The correct answers are:

2. The conquistadors were very successful in Central America because they had superior weapons, and also were wisely making alliances with some of the local people. The conquistadors brought multiple things with them in the New World, including advanced technology and weapons, culture, religion, and also diseases.

3. The region through which Cortes traveled and conquered is the Caribbean region, and also the northern part of Central America and southernmost part of North America, a region known also as Mezoamerica.

4. Most of the Central American countries speak Spanish because they were ruled for few centuries by Spain, and the Spanish language was the official one in their colonies, so everyone had to learn it and speak it.
