Answer- It is an oceanic-continental convergent boundary since an oceanic and a continental plate is coming together, creating a subduction zone. This creates magma, which comes up to the surface in the form of mountains or volcanoes i.e. the circled image.

Answer:

The tectonic plate boundary that has been caused by the structure that is circled in the image is an oceanic-continental convergent plate boundary.

Explanation:

It is evident from the image that a continental plate and an oceanic plate are converging together where the oceanic plate can be clearly seen subducting below the continental plate.

Such a boundary where one of the two plates is progressing towards the other and the other plate is resisting its movement is called a convergent plate boundary.

Now because the two plates shown in the picture are oceanic and continental plates, the tectonic plate boundary is called an oceanic-continental convergent plate boundary.

Answer:

b.- earlier; west to east.

Explanation:

Actually our planet, as the rest the planets in our Solar System (except Jupiter) they turn from east to west, that is, this is the way that our clockwise works.

That is the reason that the city A that is at the west of the city B, will have an hour earlier than the city B. (check the image as an example).

But if there is a person at the North Pole, it will seen the otherwise ( clockwise) because of the reference point, that is at the top of our planet.

Hope this info is useful.
