Trenches occur at divergent plate boundaries.<br> a. True<br> b. False
xenn [34]

Answer:

b. False

Explanation:

The trenches are not physical features that occur on places where there are subduction zones between the tectonic plates, but they do not appear on places where there are divergent plate boundaries. The trenches are simply very deep, narrow, ocean beds, that have very steep sides.

The divergent boundaries are the opposite boundaries from where the trenches occur. These boundaries occur between tectonic plates that move away from each other. The typical physical feature at this type of plate boundaries are the mid-ocean ridges (if it occurs in an ocean), or the rift valleys (if it occurs on land).

This type of boundary produces new crust on Earth, and they also can split a tectonic plate into two separate plates, or even give rise to a new continent.

Which of the layers listed below is not defined as a layer by composition? Select one: a. Lithosphere b. Crust c. Core O d. Mant
Hitman42 [59]

1. a. Lithosphere

If we divide the Earth into layers by their composition, then there are three of them, the crust, mantle, and core. The crust is the thinnest layer, being on the top, and being solid. The mantle is the second layer, lying between the crust and the core. It is a layer where the temperature and pressure are higher, and the rocks are hot and slow-moving. The core is the bottom layer, in the center of the planet. It is the hottest and has the highest pressure, being the densest of the layers and is composed mostly of iron and in lesser percentage of nickel.

2. b. Crust

The Earth is divided into several layers depending on the layers being solid or liquid. There are five different physical layers, lithosphere, asthenosphere, mesosphere, outer core and inner core. The lithosphere and the inner core are the two layers that are solid, thus the layer on top and the layer in the center. The asthenosphere, mesosphere, and outer core are all liquid, though it is a different degree of liquidity, and it is these three layers where the convection currents occur and cause the magnetic field of the Earth, as well as the tectonic movements.

What countries share a region of glaciers in South America?
Mrrafil [7]
Glaciers form in the Andes in South America - and only there, so we are looking for countries that are not placed on the Andes.

Argentina and Chile are the two countries from the list that share a region of glaciers - and there are some others, such as Bolivia and Peru.
