Answer:

The red lines on this map show us divergent plate boundaries.

Explanation:

The tectonic plates are in constant movement, and this results in interactions between them. At some places the plates collide, at other places slide past each other, and at some move away from each other. The last ones are the places where there is a divergent plate boundary.

The divergent plate boundaries can occur in the ocean or on land. When they occur in the ocean, they form an underwater mountain range, known as a mid-ocean ridge, which is volcanically highly active. An example of this is the mid-Atlantic ocean ridge. When these boundaries occur on land, they form rifts, where the crust starts to crack, a gap opens up, and gradually widens. An example of this is the Great Rift Valley of Africa.

Explain how storms are formed due to rising temperatures and other changes in
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

Hurricanes need a lot of heat to form, which is why they usually occur over tropical seas (at least 26°C).

The sun is close to the equator, providing energy to heat the ocean.

The warm ocean heats the air above it causing it to rise rapidly.

Water evaporates quickly from the hot surface of the ocean, so the rising air contains great amounts of water vapour.

The rising air starts to spin (anti-clockwise in the northern hemisphere)

The centre of the storm - the eye - is calm.

As the air rises it cools, condenses and forms towering cumulonimbus clouds.

The rapidly rising air creates an area of intense low pressure. The low pressure sucks in air, causing very strong winds.

Once the storm moves over land it starts to lose energy and fades.
