Answer:
Explanation:
Humboldt challenged European nations about the American Continent, this sentence implies that Humboldt contradicted some comments about the continent.
For example:
There are comments like: the continent doesn't have any history or culture, that is a new continent younger than Europe.
Humboldt said both continents have the same age.
American Continent was ruled and looted for people like kings, who had never set foot in the entire continent.
I would say that plate tectonics shows what the origin of volcanic activity, earthquakes and mountains comes from their collision or subduction. Where two plates collide mountains can be formed (uplift), where subduction occurs then volcanic activity like in the circum-pacific belt occurs and where stresses build up in subduction or transform fault (like the San Andreas Fault) and are suddenly released, earthquakes are the result. Subduction is where the oceanic plate gets pushed under the continental plate.
