Answer:
1. Continental-continental convergence are both <em>continental crust</em> plates.
2. Buoyancy basically means these plates are light float on top of the Asthenosphere.
Explanation:
1. To go a little more into detail, this type of convergence ocurrs when two plates made of continental crust (not oceanic) collide. In the case of ocean-continent convergence, the denser oceanic crust sinks underneath the lighter continental crust.
In this scenario, we have two plates, neither of which want to sink, so instead of going down they just crumple and fold and keep colliding. This collision creates very high mountain ranges such as the Himalaya and usually doesn't contain any volcanic activity because no magma is capable of penetrating through so much crustal material.
2. As for why continental crust is buoyant and doesn't sink has much to do with its composition. Continental crust is made mostly of silicate material. This is very different from oceanic crust which is made of basaltic rocks and is therefore heavier. The term buoyancy refers to the 'floating action' of the continental crust on top of the uppermost mantle.

Answer: Macron is the current president of France.
Answer:
The correct answer is - the direction of the points of the V shapes on contour lines.
The contour lines can tell us a lot about the shape of the relief structures on the maps, and of the things that we can also see is the path of the rivers. When the rivers are running through a steeper part, practically their upstream, because they manage to cut and shape the relief structures around them, the contour lines take up a specific V shape. The points of the V are always on the river itself, and they point to the direction from where it is coming from, thus following the points of the V shape can bring us very easily to the upstream of the river.
