Answer:
The right answer is A.
Explanation:
His Holiness the Dalai Lama is the spiritual leader of Tibet and the main figure of Tibetan Buddhism. He was also the head of the local government until the Chinese took military control of Tibet in the 1950s. He escaped to India where he has been living as an exile since then, heading a government in exile. Tenzin Gyatso (his actual name) got the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1989.
The length of time that a volcanic eruption impacts the climate is determined by the capacity of the volcano and how much material it will let out in the atmosphere. The smaller the volcano, with smaller capacity, the smaller effect it'll have on the climate and the duration of it's impact, and the space on which it'll have climatic impact. The bigger the volcano, with bigger capacity, the bigger the effect on the climate and the duration of it, and the bigger the space it will have climatic impact on.
The Earth's crust is broken up into pieces called plates. Heat rising and falling inside the mantle creates convection currents generated by radioactive decay in the core. The convection currents move the plates. Where convection currents diverge near the Earth's crust, plates move apart. Where convection currents converge, plates move towards each other. The movement of the plates, and the activity inside the Earth, is called plate tectonics.
Plate tectonics cause earthquakes and volcanoes. The point where two plates meet is called a plate boundary. Earthquakes and volcanoes are most likely to occur either on or near plate boundaries.
The map shows the world's tectonic plates and the distribution of earthquakes and volcanoes.
Answer:
The given statement is True
Explanation:
Generally, basin and range areas of the world are mostly the direct outcome of the geological factors that underlie most notably -tectonic extensions. These have started 17 million years back and are the outcome of lithosphere and earth crust being pulled apart due to tectonic movement. By the passage of time with progressive crust movement, it became stretched and thinner to a point where fracture can occur due to faults. Such faults are the outcome of normal faults. Western United States have a vast region covering its inland which is characterized by abrupt elevation changes, varying between flat arid basins to faulted and narrow chain of mountains.
