Geography

3 0

Answer:

An independent state consisting of a city and its surrounding territory is called a city-state.

Explanation:

There are multiple types of independent states, and there are mutliple criteriums on which the definitions are made. A big portion of the smallest states, which are also very interesting, tend to fall into the category of city-states. This type of state is basically when one major city and its close surrounding territory make up the whole state.

Such states are nothing new, as they have existed since the development of the first civilization in Mesopotamia, through antiquity with the Greek and Phoenician city-states being an example, the Italian city-states during the Middle Ages, etc. Nowadays, there are still states of this type, and good examples are Monaco, Andora, Vatikan, and San Marino.

Which of the following are common tectonic settings associated with volcanic activity?Select all that apply.
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

Options (A), (B), (C), and (D)

Explanation:

The volcanic activity refers to the eruption of magma at the surface of the ocean floor and continental land areas, forming volcanoes.

Some of the tectonic settings that are associated with volcanic activity are as follows-

  • Mantle plumes- These are the large uprising bodies of magma that are generated due to the formation of convection current in the mantle. These are localized body and are located away from the tectonic boundaries. For example, Hawaii is formed as the plates moved over the mantle plumes.
  • Continental rifts- This refers to the eruption of magma at the surface of the continents, due to the divergent motion of two continental plates. It results in the formation of a rift, rift valley and then later forms an ocean.
  • Island arcs- These are formed due to the collision of two oceanic plates, where the volcanoes are formed on the lighter oceanic plate due to the rising up of magma.
  • Continental arcs- These are formed due to the collision between an oceanic and a continental plate, where the volcanoes are formed due to the uprising of magma in the lighter continental plates.
