Geography
1 answer:
AysviL [449]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The Arctic and Antarctic have the same variations of day and night, but they are in opposite parts of the year.

Explanation:

The Arctic is the region at and around the Northern Pole, while the Antarctic is the continent at and around the Southern Pole. These are the two coldest areas on Earth, and even in what is considered summer the temperatures are very low. They have a lot of similarities but also some differences.

One feature that falls in both categories, similarity, and difference, are the variations of day and night. The similarity is in the fact that both regions experience sunlight constantly for half a year, and then experience night constantly for half a year. The difference though is in the fact that they occur in opposite parts of the year. When the Arctic has half a year of light, the Antarctic has half a year of night and vice versa, and this is due to the tilted axis of Earth.

Nonliving resources would be like coal, something that takes a long time to get there.

Why do many oceanic volcanoes occur as long lines of volcanoes that are active at only one end? O The lithosphere moves over a s
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

The active volcanoes are gradually moving away from the oceanic ridge.

Explanation:

  • Many oceanic volcanoes occur as long lines of the active end of volcanoes as here in the mid-oceanic ridges the plate is pushed far away from the ridge surface of the earth as these tend to move out in the direction of the movement of the plates.
  • Thus the volcanoes are generally found near the active zones or regions of the tectonic plate and associated with the earthquakes occurring on the fault line or shear lines of the plates.
  • Spreading of the ridges as a result of the seafloor spreading takes place and the mantel and plates from below are the driving forces that make the volcanoes and convection current that rises through the mantle pushes or spread the volcanoes to the sides like seen in the ring of fire.
