Answer: The Turquoise Lake as seen nowadays in Colorado is a result of the 1850´s modern warming climate transition, lingering away from the Little Ice Age times occurred 500 years ago. This given period was characterized by snow blowing winds that  accumulated ice through thermal compaction, generating the glaciers as we see them.

Explanation: Terminal and recessional moraines are the terminus of a glacial feature. Moraines are the sedimentar charges carried by melted glacials. Consequence of those is the repositioning of the snow downwards the valleys. The ice, initially attached to the glaciers and mountain tops, undergoes melting by seasonal and/or climate transition warming, resulting on circumstancial water deposits that place on the basin/lower areas of the mountain chains, forming lakes.

How do the population densities of La Paz and Lima compare?​
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

La Paz is a bit more densely populated than Lima, since the former has a population density slightly higher than this of latter.

Explanation:

In this case, we need to know the populations and occupied area of the city. By definition, population density is the ratio of the population of the city to the occupied area in the same location.

The required information is gathered below:

La Paz (Bolivia)

Population: 1.801 million (Metropolitan area)

Occupied area: 475 square kilometers.

Population density: 3792 inhabitants per square kilometer.

Lima (Perú)

Population: 9.674 million

Occupied area: 2672 square kilometers.

Population density: 3621 inhabitants per square kilometer.

In this case, La Paz is a bit more densely populated than Lima, since the former has a population density slightly higher than this of latter.

Explain why ther are few volcanoes in the himalayas
Savatey [412]
For volcanoes to emerge oceanic and continental tectonic plate has to collide. Oceanic plate will subduct (sink), and will melt. Molten plate rises through crusts and forms volcanoes.

In Himalayas two sections of continental crust and create mountains (they don't subduct and melt).
