The correct answer is - a) Geological processes contribute to the formation of vents in that region.

The western part of the United States is geologically much more active than the other parts of the country. This is due to the geological activity in the region which is caused by the subduction of the heavier oceanic Pacific tectonic plate under the lighter North American tectonic plate. Because of this, the pressure, temperatures, magma, gases, form the mantle are able to come to the surface, and one of the results is the hydrothermal activity.

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

The answer to be filled in the given blank is

option B) low, high

Explanation:

Therefore, during the daytime, heating of land is faster as compared to water which causes <u>low</u> pressure to form over land and <u>high</u> pressure over coastal areas.

This is because the heat capacity of water is more as compared to land, i.e., water takes longer time to vary its temperature than land. Thus land gets heated faster as compared to water.

Therefore, movement of warm air above the land reduces pressure over land and increases pressure over sea.
