Answer: Volcanoes form at B when the oceanic plate is subducted, and the plate melts and forms magma. This magma rises towards the surface and erupts as lava which forms the volcanoes. It can be found in Pacific Northwest in northern CA, Oregon and Washington. The boundary in B shows converging plate boundary. An oceanic plate collides with a continental plate. The result is the oceanic plate sinks below a deep ocean trench into the mantle. The boundary shown in A is a diverging plate boundary. 2 oceanic plates diverge to form a mid-ocean ridge.
Exceptions to A and B are when volcanoes form at hot spots in the middle of continental or oceanic plates. Magma melts through the crust and moves to the surface in a hot spot. Also a collision between two oceanic plates can form volcanoes. One of the oceanic plate is subducted which melts the plate and the formation of magma which erupts to form a chain of volcanic islands called an island arc.

So your answer is C)
the common name for the British Indian Empire was the British Raj. The British East India Company ruled India until the rebellion in 1867 which then brought direct rule from the British Government.
Simoom is a strong, dry, dust-laden wind usually used to describe a local wind to blows in the Sahara, Palestine, Syria, Jordan and the Arabian Peninsula. It can exceed 54 degrees C and the humidity can drop bellow 10%.
Shamal is a northwesterly wind blowing over Iraq and Persian Golf states, very often strong during the day, but decreasing at night. This wind occurs anywhere from just once, to several times a year, and it creates large sandstorms.
The similarities between these two winds is that they are strong, dry winds, that cause sandstorms.
Answer:
The oldest rocks of the oceanic crust are found in deep ocean trenches far away from active mid-ocean ridges.
Explanation:
Beginning in the late 1940s, oceanic expeditions continued to map the Atlantic ocean floor using new equipment and collecting thousands of rock samples. These works made it possible to map a gigantic system of submarine mountain ranges, called meso-ocean ridges. By perfecting the method of dating rocks, scientists have been able to determine the true age of seabed rocks. They found that the closer to the mid-ocean ridge the rocks were much younger than imagined, while rocks close to the continents were increasingly older, thus corroborating the Continental Drift.
