Answer:

A). Continental volcanic arc

Explanation:

As per the question, the phrase '<u>continental volcanic arc' does not fit the pattern</u> as it is 'formed through the reduction of the oceanic plate under the continental plate.' While the other three 'continental rise,' 'continental slope,' and 'continental shelf' together contribute to make the 'continental margin.' It is the area that covers the boundary of the continental crust that contains mostly floating materials with three different portions with distinct depths at the verge of the rise, slope, and shelf levels. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.

Which of the following is NOT true?
sergey [27]

Answer:

Volcanoes may form at a fault where a transform fault exists is not a true statement.

Explanation:

olcThe volcanoes can be found across the globe, in most of the regions. What can be noticed though is that there is a high concentration of volcanoes a certain places, while there is much less or lacking in others. The places where there is high concetration of volcanoes are along the divergent and convergent plate boundaries, with isolated volcanic chains in the interior of the plates caused by hot spots.

The places where volcanoes are lacking, except the vast majority of the interior of the plates, are the transform plate boundaries. The reason for this is that at these plate boundaries the plates don't create a gap between each other and make the crust thinner so that magma can move toward the surface, instead, they slide past each other, thus create pressure between each other, which would make it even harder for magma to come out on the surface than in an interior of a plate.

krek1111 [17]

During a de la niña event, the environmental changes that the tropical pacific ocean and its surrounding landmasses would likely experience would be the attraction of more cold-water species such as salmon and squid.

<h3>La niña</h3>

This is a natural oceanic-climatic phenomenon that consists of the cooling of the waters of the Pacific. The winds are stronger and push the hot water towards Asia, while in America, there is the cooling of the waters and the presence of nutrients on the surface.

It usually occurs over periods of two to seven years, and makes winter temperatures warmer in the South and cooler in the North.
