The correct answer is - dunes.
The dunes, or sand dunes, are a relief forms that are formed by deposition of material. In the process of forming a dune, the responsibility goes to the eolian processes (wind processes). The wind has its own mechanical power to erode the rocks, but it also has the power to transport the material. The stronger the wind, the bigger the particles it can transport, and vice versa. When the wind is transporting a certain material, in the case of the dunes it will be sand particles, eventually it will start to lose on speed, and as it loses on speed, it loses on power, so the sand particles are starting to fall on the ground and deposit. s more and more sand particles are depositing, the dune starts to form, and it is growing bigger as more sand particles are falling on it.
Answer:
the andes
Explanation:
likewise a comparatively young and seismically restless mountain range , runs down the western edge of the continent
Answer:
B)away from the mid-ocean ridge
Explanation:
Seafloor spreading is a process that occurs at mid-ocean ridges, where new oceanic crust is formed through volcanic activity and then gradually moves away from the ridge.
Answer:
a. True.
b. False.
c. True.
d. True.
Explanation:
A landform refers to a geomorphic or natural feature of the Earth's surface, which typically makes its terrain. Some examples of landforms on planet earth are mountain, plains, volcanoes, valley, hills and plateau.
Basically, the tectonic plates such as the oceanic and continental lithosphere interact in three (3) ways and these are; divergent, transform and convergent boundaries.
a. Plates shift the continents around as they move, so Earth's surface is constantly changing.
b. False: the contacts between plates are called passive margins. A passive margin is a region where continents have rifted apart and are then separated by a body of water such as an ocean.
c. True: plates may consist of both ocean floor and continental crust, but never just oceanic or continental crust.
d. True: there are 120 major tectonic plates.
