Geography
1 answer:
Leona [35]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

Earth's thin outer shell is broken into big pieces called tectonic plates. These plates fit together like a puzzle, but they're not stuck in one place. They are floating on Earth's mantle, a really thick layer of hot flowing rock.The edges of tectonic plates are called boundaries.Most earthquakes occur along the edge of the oceanic and continental plates. The earth's crust (the outer layer of the planet) is made up of several pieces, called plates. ... Earthquakes usually occur where two plates are running into each other or sliding past each other.

How did the growth rate of modern Seoul compared with the growth rate of new York or Chicago since the 19th century?
mixer [17]

The correct answer is - A. Seoul grew much more rapidly.

Even though both New York and Chicago has had relatively quick growth rate since the 19th century, they can not match the tempo of growth rate of modern Seoul. After the end of the World War II, Seoul's population skyrocketed. Prior to the war, the city had walls around it, and the space for living was not changing, thus the population was relatively stable and with the same size. After the war though, the removed walls, foreign influence, and more open attitude, led to dramatic growth rate of the city. From being a city that had bellow one million citizens, Seoul grew to have almost 10 million people nowadays, and that has happened in a period of only around 70 years.
