Oceanic crust is it thin based on where it is

Geography
1 answer:
hichkok12 [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Oceanic crust is created as magma rises to fill the gap between diverging tectonic plates and is consumed in subduction zones. It is geologically young, with a mean age of 60 Ma, and is thin, averaging 6.5 km in thickness. Oceanic crust consists almost exclusively of extrusive basalt and its intrusive equivalents.

What right is denied to Israel’s Arabs?
trasher [3.6K]
The answer is - c. serving in the military.

Just to be clear, serving in the military is not forbidden for Israeli Arabs, but it is the only thing that is not ''required'' of them to do. Israelies have to go to military service, while Israeli Arabs are not ''required'' to do that. Even though most of them don't do it, still there's the occasional exception where some of them want to go to military service and they do attend it.

What is the most destructive force in the world?
MariettaO [177]

Supervolcanoes are different from normal volcanoes. They aren't recognisable by a conical shape that you would imagine a volcano to be. These volcanoes form calderas which are huge craters in the ground after previous eruptions, which are so large that they are often only noticeable from the air above

Which of the following scenarios best describes how the Hawaiian Islands formed in the Pacific Ocean? View Available Hint(s) Whi
pogonyaev

The correct answer is - Magma generated from a hot spot burned through the overlying plate to create volcanoes.

The Hawaiian Islands are all formed as a result of volcanic activity of a hot spot. The hot spot is stationary, but the islands are in the shape of a chain, not all in the same place. Also, the rocks on the islands that do not have active volcanoes are older, than the ones that do have volcanic activity. This suggests that the Pacific plate is moving. According the direction in which the islands are arranged, the Pacific plate seems to move toward northwest. As it moves, it moves over the hot spot. Since the hot spot is stationary, as the Pacific plate moves, eventually the volcanic activity will stop on the island that has moved further away from the hot spot. The magma from the hot spot will penetrate through the crust that came to be over it. That will result in new volcanic island emerging from the sea over the hot spot. The process goes on for millions of years, and it can result in hundreds of islands of volcanic origin.
