Answer:

Sea floor spreading- Oceanic ridge and Magma pushing two plates apart.

Continental drift-Concept of pangaea and Oceanic plates sliding under continental crust

Explanation:

Due to the divergent plate movement, the magma come out to the surface, forming the mid oceanic ridge and this separation of plates on the sea floor is known as the sea floor spreading. The magma here pushes the two plates to move apart because of the convection current that generates in the mantle. One example of mid oceanic ridge is the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.

 Continental drift refers to the slow and gradual movement of the lithospheric plates over the viscous asthenosphere layer. This motion of continents takes place because of the plate tectonic movement. Due to this plate motion, the denser plate gets subducts beneath the less denser plates. For example, the oceanic crust when collides with a continental crust, it gets subducted because of its higher density. The great supercontinent "pangaea" also formed and separated due to this plate motion.

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer: (There is no picture added. but i will try to answer)

At the border of tectonic plates, recentearthquakes,landslides, volcanic activity, certain types of weather, and—possibly—near-earth objects (e.g., asteroids, comets) colliding with or exploding above the ocean.

Explanation: Places like Indonesia or japan are located at borders of one or two tectonic plates. The crust is not a whole, it is divided. These tectonic plates move at high speed, bumping eacother, causing small tremors that we cannot feel (earthquake). But sometimes,They crash into eachother, folding over another. This causes big earthquakes. When earthquake occurs, tsunamis are caused. There are high chances of tsunamis after very big earthquakes. When  objects like asteroids fall into the ocean (rarley happens) They create a big force causing tsunamis. The weather can also affect in bringing tsunamis . eg: A strong gale or storm.

6. Early European exploration of Australia's interior was prevented by what two features?
Juliette [100K]

The early European exploration of Australia's interior was prevented by the Western Plateau and the Great Dividing Range.

Explanation:

Australia was discovered and explored by the Europeans much latter than the other large land masses on the planet, apart from Antarctica of course. When Australia was discovered, it was not inhabited, but it was after some time when the British came that Europeans started to settle in. Australia was actually used as a prison, as it is mostly British prisoners that were brought and settled.

It was only the coastal areas that were explored and settled though, while the interior was left untouched. The reason for this were the natural obstacles, mainly the Great Dividing Range and the Western Plateau. The Great Dividing Range is a high and steep mountain range, covered with dense forest, in a roughly north-south direction, and it was extremely hard and dangerous to pass it. The Western Plateau is an enormous plateau that is mostly covered with deserts, so naturally the people avoided it.

Even nowadays, there is very big portion of Australia that is not explored and is void of humans, such as:

  • Great Victoria Desert
  • Great Artesian Basin
  • The tropical rainforest in the northeast
  • Macdonnel Ranges

Explain one way in which geography and trade routes combined to aid the development of cities in medieval europe.
Nata [24]
