Answer:
active margins :- g. mid-ocean ridge, a. formation of igneous rock, b. submarine lava eruptions,
passive margins:- d. gentle continental slope, f. few or no earthquakes, h. continental rise, k. broad continental shelf, l. can be adjacent to thick continental crust, j. formation of sedimentary rock
both:- e. accretionary prism, c. trench etc.
Explanation:
- An active margin is found at the leading edges of the continents where it collided with the oceanic plate. It is commonly the site of tectonic activity. Earthquakes volcanoes and the mountain building and the formation of new igneous rocks.
- While the passive margins include the continental rise abyssal plains and few or nor earthquake. formation of sedimentary rocks. Broad shelves and thick crust.
Continents rest on massive slabs of rock called tectonic plates. The plates are always moving and interacting in a process called plate tectonics. As the seafloor grows wider, the continents on opposite sides of the ridge move away from each other.
