Answer:
d) The lithosphere is broken into sections called plates.
Explanation:
Plate tectonics is the movement of the lithosphere and is responsible for such phenomena as volcanoes and earthquakes. The lithosphere is the exterior layer of the earth about a hundred kilometers thick. This layer is broken into large sized plates, about seven medium plates and numerous smaller plates.
These plates move a couple of inches every year from each other and are the cause of volcanoes and earthquakes.
Answer:
c. The inter-tropical convergence zone is associated with a migratory band of high pressure cells, bringing moderate precipitation to low-latitude areas.
Explanation:
- The relationships with the high and low-pressure areas and the average annual rainfall are associated with the divergence and the convergence of the air along the ITCZ zone and are formed by the migration of the pressure cells that bring moderate to heavy rainfall in lower latitudes.
In regards to the given question, there are no options given to choose from. I am answering this question based on my knowledge and hope that it helps you. Middle-latitude cyclones are fueled by air high up in the atmosphere. These cyclones are also known by the name of frontal cyclones and they are very large cyclonic storms that have a diameter of about 2000 kilometers.
