Answer:
1. Continental-continental convergence are both <em>continental crust</em> plates.
2. Buoyancy basically means these plates are light float on top of the Asthenosphere.
Explanation:
1. To go a little more into detail, this type of convergence ocurrs when two plates made of continental crust (not oceanic) collide. In the case of ocean-continent convergence, the denser oceanic crust sinks underneath the lighter continental crust.
In this scenario, we have two plates, neither of which want to sink, so instead of going down they just crumple and fold and keep colliding. This collision creates very high mountain ranges such as the Himalaya and usually doesn't contain any volcanic activity because no magma is capable of penetrating through so much crustal material.
2. As for why continental crust is buoyant and doesn't sink has much to do with its composition. Continental crust is made mostly of silicate material. This is very different from oceanic crust which is made of basaltic rocks and is therefore heavier. The term buoyancy refers to the 'floating action' of the continental crust on top of the uppermost mantle.

Answer with Explanation:
A canyon is a natural area where both living and non-living organisms are found. Residing near it brings several benefits. <u>One of these is having the opportunity to exercise.</u> A person may access the canyon for his daily jog or walk. He may also do a little bit of hiking.<u> Another benefit is having good quality of water (free from pollutants).</u> The vegetation in the canyon prevents the urban runoff (usually from storms) from polluting the bodies of water.<u> Lastly, it gives the person a chance to see wildlife.</u> Many of the canyons are being preserved; thus, it's an opportunity to see many endangered habitats in it.
