Geological features that can formed at a subduction zone is Mid-ocean ridges
<u>
Explanation:</u>
Mountains on land are called mountains, which are formed due to tectonic events as learnt in books. But what about mountains underwater are known as ridges. Sometimes even as mid-ocean ridges. These are ridges which are underwater and formed with tectonic plates.
There are two processes come across in them called ridge-push and slab-pull. Under the seduction zone, slab pull is the process that comes into motion. Under this Weight of the heavy tectonic plates are being pulled in the process. Apart from mid-ocean ridge no other geological feature can be formed at the seduction zone.
Physical characteristics of a place make up its natural environment and are derived from geological, hydrological, atmospheric, and biological processes. They include land forms, bodies of water, climate, soils, natural vegetation, and animal life.
The folding of the metamorphic rocks as they respond to
stress is an example of:
Choices are:
1.
Brittle fracture
2.
Shear
3.
Ductile flow
The answer to the following is: The folding of metamorphic
rocks as they respond to stress is an example of ductile flow.
In the middle of the ocean basin
Explanation:
Fist, the forces acting on the plate are tensional force which act away from each other.
When these forces act away from each other, they cause the place of their origin to stretch hence creating a new feature
