Answer:

less dense than the solid inner planets.

Explanation:

A planet can be defined as a large celestial body having sufficient mass to allow for self-gravity and make it assume a nearly circular shape (hydrostatic equilibrium), revolves in an orbit around the Sun in the solar system and has a cleared neighborhood.

Basically, the planets are divided into two (2) main categories and these includes;

I. Outer planets: these planets are beyond the asteroid belt and comprises of jupiter, saturn, uranus and neptune, from left to right of the solar system.

II. Inner planets: these planets are the closest to the sun and comprises of mercury, venus, earth and mars.

The outer planets are made mostly of gas (hydrogen and helium) which makes them less dense than the solid inner planets. These gases are generally known to be less dense in terms of physical properties.

The Hawaiian Islands are associated with what type of volcanism? intraplate volcanism volcanism at a divergent plate boundary su
tangare [24]

The correct answer is - intraplate volcanism.

The Hawaiian Islands are volcanic islands, thus islands that have been created by volcanic activity. Unlike most of the volcanic islands, or most of the volcanoes, they are not related to any type of volcanism asociated with plate boundary. These islands are in fact associated with intraplate volcanism.

The intraplate volcanism, unlike the other volcanisms, appears inside the plate, not on the boundary of it. The other, more common name, used for this volcanism is hot spot volcanism. This type of volcanic activity appears on places where there's a hot spot, so even though the plate is on top of it, it manages to penetrate through it, and create volcanoes on the surface.

gavmur [86]

Answer:

No, I don’t agree that there are enough resources on earth to support increase in per capita consumption rates if human population growth rates stay the same.

Explanation:

  • The population is growing at a much higher rate than we expect it to be. According to statistics, in recent years we've been adding about a billion people every 12 or 13 years or so.
  • There are no any resource which lasts eternity, so we must use it very wisely.
  • And we all know the consequences of the increasing population. The resources are limited and population is excessive so with this rate of growth of population and limited resources, we are the guest for few decades only.
