Plates slip past each other at the boundary. The San Andreas fault is a continental transform fault that runs along the spine of California from the Salton Sea in SoCal to Cape Mendocino in NorCal. It marks the tectonic plate boundary between the Pacific and North American plates which are constantly moving past each other. The fault type the San Andreas has is a strike-slip, which means the plates move past each other.

Why are these planets so different? To answer this, we must start with an understanding of the processes that cause planetary su
juin [17]

Answer:

Volcanism: eruption of molten rock onto surface

tectonics: disruption of planet's surface by internal stresses

erosion: surface changes by water,wind or ice

Impact: impacts by asteroides or meteorites

Explanation:

Terrestrial planets have hard surfaces that can be reshaped by 4 major geological processes, that are:

  • volcanism
  • erosion
  • tectonics
  • impact cratering

Each of these processes is caused by different things. For e.g :

Volcanism happens when hot lava reaches the surface and give rise to volcanic planes e.g runny lava makes flat lava plains, while thickest lava makes steep stratovolcanoes

Erosion: is a geological process that removes rock, soil or dissolved materials and transport them by wind or water from one location of earth's crust to another. Example of erosion caused by ice, Glaciers carved by Yosemite Valley.

Tectonics: internal stresses in the earth caused by convection of mantle give rise to tectonic forces. Example compression forces give rise to mountain ranges. And valleys are formed at the point where a cryst is pulled apart

Impact cratering: This is caused when a meteorites or asteroides hits a planet's surface. Impact catering happened immediately after the solar system was formed.

Which churches began as a result of the First Great Awakening? Presbyterian and Anglican Quaker and Lutheran Catholic and Purita
zvonat [6]

Answer:

Baptist and Methodist.

Explanation:

The First Great Awakening was a period of spiritual renewal that occurred during the mid-18th century. This period also saw a great deviation from the Catholic belief system and the emergence of more Protestant sect religious churches such as the Baptist and the Methodists.

This spiritual revival and awakening began as a result of the oppressive nature of the Catholic Church of England. Beginning in the American colonies,  the religious prosecution led to the revival and emergence or founding of a different Christian belief path such as the <u>Baptists and the Methodist Churches.</u>
