Answer:

1.) The theory of plate tectonics states that the Earth's solid outer crust, the lithosphere, is separated into plates that move over the asthenosphere, the molten upper portion of the mantle. Oceanic and continental plates come together, spread apart, and interact at boundaries all over the planet.

2.) Convergent boundaries -- where crust is destroyed as one plate dives under another. Transform boundaries -- where crust is neither produced nor destroyed as the plates slide horizontally past each other.

3.) At an ocean-ocean convergent boundary, one of the plates (oceanic crust and lithospheric mantle) is pushed, or subducted, under the other (Figure 4.6. 1). Often it is the older and colder plate that is denser and subducts beneath the younger and warmer plate.

4.) When oceanic crust converges with continental crust, the denser oceanic plate plunges beneath the continental plate. This process, called subduction, occurs at the oceanic trenches. The entire region is known as a subduction zone. Subduction zones have a lot of intense earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.

5.) When two continental plates converge, they smash together and create mountains. The amazing Himalaya Mountains are the result of this type of convergent plate boundary. The Appalachian Mountains resulted from ancient convergence when Pangaea came together.

6.)Divergent boundaries -- where new crust is generated as the plates pull away from each other. Convergent boundaries -- where crust is destroyed as one plate dives under another. Transform boundaries -- where crust is neither produced nor destroyed as the plates slide horizontally past each other.

7.) The oceanic lithosphere is formed at an oceanic ridge, while the lithosphere is subducted back into the asthenosphere at ocean trenches. ... A process previously proposed to contribute to plate motion and the formation of new oceanic crust at mid-ocean ridges is the "mantle conveyor" due to deep convection

What function do names play in society? (for an essay so please be specific)

Deffense [45]

Answer:

Names. Ah yes, the human configuration. Human names, animal names, company names, vehicle names, building names, it's all one of the sort. That's how you identify your target. That's how you tell one person from another verbally.

The function it plays is identification and separation. Names are one of the most important things these days. You have it on your license, your receipt, your credit card, your homework paper, your email, almost everything you need a name for. If you were in a movie theatre line, or a restaurant line, and you had a reserved ticket or seat, they would either identify you by your ticket number/table number or your name.

This is the same situation with companies, vehicles and animals. How do you tell a lion and tiger apart without seeing both right next to each other? You verbally tell them apart by their names. If one is called a "tiger", and one is called a "lion", then they must not be the same, not sharing the same name. But, that's the species name. You can give them an actual name that identifies them from "dog" or "cat". You can give them human names, like Rocky, John, or even more animal-styled names, like Buddy, Lucky, Tucker, Spencer, and so on.

Now, how do you tell companies apart? "I'm gonna go shop at the building with the W, A, L, M, A, R, T letters on the front instead of the buildings with the D, O, L, L, A, R, S, T, O, R, E letters!" No. You say, "I'm gonna go to Walmart instead of the Dollar Store," right? That's the only right way to say it. To distinct one thing by itself, you need a name for it. Instead of saying, "I'm gonna play the shooting game instead of the other shooting game," you'll say, "I'm gonna play COD instead of Battlefield," right? The first way just sounds weird.
