What form of geological activity does the great rift valley represent
Savatey [412]

Answer: Volcano

Explanation:

The Great Rift Valley is the site of major geological activity that stretches from Mozambique to the Middle East. Scientists believe that Africa and the Arabian Peninsula were joined together before they were separated by a process called rifting.

As the Earths tectonic plates begin to tear apart in this region, molten magma emerge from the earth crust to fill the void resulting in a separation.

Geologist estimates that the phenomenon which resulted in the great rift valley started 25 million years ago and gave rise to the Red sea. It is believed that the Indian Ocean flooded into the rift to form the Red Sea.

The.magma that seeps upward to fill crustal voids in the rift valley emerge mainly via volcanoes. Hence, many active and semi-active volcanoes are scattered throughout the region referred to as the Great Rift Valley, including Mount Kenya and Mount Kilimanjaro.

According to the online content article about Antarctica and the Atacama, why are parts of Antarctica considered to be deserts?
sergij07 [2.7K]
Parts of Antarctica are considered to be deserts because it is too dry, there's no rainfall because it is too cold and the amount of snow that falls yearly is comparable with the amount of rains that falls in thee driest deserts on the planet, thus the lack of rain and snow makes it a proper desert, cold desert.
