The correct answer is - Magma generated from a hot spot burned through the overlying plate to create volcanoes.
The Hawaiian Islands are all formed as a result of volcanic activity of a hot spot. The hot spot is stationary, but the islands are in the shape of a chain, not all in the same place. Also, the rocks on the islands that do not have active volcanoes are older, than the ones that do have volcanic activity. This suggests that the Pacific plate is moving. According the direction in which the islands are arranged, the Pacific plate seems to move toward northwest. As it moves, it moves over the hot spot. Since the hot spot is stationary, as the Pacific plate moves, eventually the volcanic activity will stop on the island that has moved further away from the hot spot. The magma from the hot spot will penetrate through the crust that came to be over it. That will result in new volcanic island emerging from the sea over the hot spot. The process goes on for millions of years, and it can result in hundreds of islands of volcanic origin.
Answer:
Tundra ecosystems are treeless regions found in the Arctic and on the tops of mountains, where the climate is cold and windy
Explanation:
<span>The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "Topographic maps feature contour lines to portray the shape and elevation of the land. Topo maps render the three-dimensional ups and downs of the terrain on a two-dimensional surface. It also includes contours. Orthophoto maps</span> show land features using color-enhanced photographic images which have been processed to show detail in true position. They may or may not include contours."
Answer:
Writing
Explanation:
Hunter-gatherer societies had religion, art, language, and many other things that other later societies also had. But they didn't know how to write. Writing came later with more permanent settlements that were made possible by humans learning how to cultivate and grow their food and didn't have to move that much, or at all anymore.
In distance, it's something like maybe 245,000 miles ... corresponding to the
several Apollo missions during which a Command and Service module entered
lunar orbit and swung around the back side of the moon with astronauts aboard.
The farthest from Earth that a human has ever gone <em>and walked on solid ground</em>
is roughly 238,000 miles, corresponding to the six Apollo missions that landed
six pairs of astronauts on the near side of the surface of the moon, between 1969
and 1972 .
