Answer:

a. True.

b. False.

c. True.

d. True.

Explanation:

A landform refers to a geomorphic or natural feature of the Earth's surface, which typically makes its terrain. Some examples of landforms on planet earth are mountain, plains, volcanoes, valley, hills and plateau.

Basically, the tectonic plates such as the oceanic and continental lithosphere interact in three (3) ways and these are; divergent, transform and convergent boundaries.

a. Plates shift the continents around as they move, so Earth's surface is constantly changing.

b. False: the contacts between plates are called passive margins. A passive margin is a region where continents have rifted apart and are then separated by a body of water such as an ocean.

c. True: plates may consist of both ocean floor and continental crust, but never just oceanic or continental crust.

d. True: there are 120 major tectonic plates.

Hello:) anyone able to help me with the 3rd point? I don’t understand it :( thank you !
Stels [109]

The two tectonic plates meet at point one. One is moving under the other, shown by the two arrows on the top pointing towards each other. The denser plate (left side) is subducted. This means the denser plate begins to go under the less dense plate. The lithosphere (crust/tectonic plate) is mainly solid rock. As it begins to go into the mantle it will begin to heat up as the mantle is hotter than the surface. The solid surface becomes a molten rock, known as magma. It melts as it goes down.
