Answer:

Explanation:

New Zealand is located in one of the most tectonically active regions of the world, the pacific ring of fire.

Volcanic activities is produced from uprising magma through the earth. They usually occur around plate boundaries on the surface of the earth.

New Zealand sits around an area where the Pacific plate subducts under the Indo-Australian plate. As the subduction occurs, the rocks beneath undergoes partial melting leading to the formation of magma. The magma reaches the surface in landward regions away from the subduction margins and series of volcanic arcs can form. These series of volcanoes typifies the tectonic setting of New Zealand and it is responsible for the vast volcanic activity in the region.

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

(2.5, 3)

Explanation:

This question requires using the midpoint formula.

(formula is attached below as an image for better understanding)

First identify which values correspond with which variables in the formula:

First coordinate: (3, 7)

x_1 = 3

y_1 = 7

Second coordinate: (2, -1)

x_2 = 2

y_2 = -1

Now we plug the values into the formula and simplify:

((3+2)/2, (7-1)/2)

(5/2, 6/2)

(5/2, 3)

(2.5, 3

Nesterboy [21]
Culture is defined as C. a learned way of living.

According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, culture is defined as "<span>the act of developing the intellectual and moral </span>faculties<span> especially by education."

If this is too hard for you to understand, it's basically saying that culture is the development of your intellect and your morals/ethics by education from those people who came before you, previous generations. Culture is passed down from generation to generation, and is also improved/changed.
