The Great Rift Valley

The East African Rift Valley (EAR) is a developing divergent plate boundary in East Africa. Here the eastern portion of Africa, the Somalian plate, is pulling away from the rest of the continent, that comprises the Nubian plate. This extension has formed a rift valley, similar to the morphology of the one we see at the Vale of Eden albeit much younger! Crustal extension has formed a series of elongate lowland valleys bound by steeply dipping normal faults, separated by regions of comparatively high land. The Nubian and Somalian plates are also separating from the Arabian plate in the north, thus creating a ‘Y’ shaped rifting system. These plates intersect in the Afar region of Ethiopia at what is known as a ‘triple junction’.

liubo4ka [24]
<h2>The money a student spends on rent for his apartment while attending school is not an example of the opportunity cost of going to school.</h2>

Explanation: Opportunity cost is defined as the loss of potential profit from other option when one option is chosen. For each choice we make, potential gain is lost by choosing that alternative.

We invest in university expenses as we believe, it will pay off someday in the future. The people who graduate with a degree gets higher salary and get long term career than a student without a degree.

The nap a student could have enjoyed without attending class is not an example of the opportunity cost as investment in colleges offer much more return.
