Answer:
Correct option are Basalt, gabbro and peridotite.
Explanation:
Igneous rocks like basalt, gabbro, dunite, diabase, and peridotite contains the olivine mineral. These are the dark coloured rocks and found within the surface of earth mostly in the areas around the tectonic plates. Olivine is known for its crystallization at high temperatures. It crystallize itself from the heat of the earth. Common olivine minerals are Forsterite, Fayalite, Monticellite and Tephroite.
I would say B Because I remover my teacher telling me that tundra are mainly found at northern latitudes.
<u>Answer:
</u>
The process of thick sediment layers to "accumulate" along the "boundaries of continental and oceanic plates" is called Subduction.
<u>Explanation:
</u>
- During a marine transgression, sea level raises high compared to land level resulting in floods. These are triggered during climate changes, ice-age, isostatic movements.
- Subduction occurs at the tectonic plates where one plate is moves under another forcing to sink into Earth’s mantle due to the gravitational force.
- The plates are continental and oceanic in the zone of lithosphere. The rate of subduction is usually seven to 8 centimetres per year.
- Marine regressions are opposite to transgressions where sea levels fall compared to land levels.
- Glaciation is the interval of time within an ice-age. The current glacier period is of Holocene.

Westward expansion meant that the US acquired ever increasing amounts of land, and needed people, farmers, to settle there so it could maintained without a huge military presence
