Answer:
The plates will collide in 50,000,000 years.
Explanation:
The tectonic plates are constantly moving. Their movement results in some of them to collide, thus to form convergent plate boundaries. In this case, we have two plates that are relatively far away and the movement is about the average. In order to find out how many years will be needed for the plates to collide we need to:
- convert the km into cm
- divide the distance (in cm) between the plates with the rate of movement of the plate
1 km = 100,000 cm
100,000 x 1,500 = 150,000,000 cm
150,000,000 / 3 = 50,000,000 years
We get a result of 50 million years, meaning the plates will collide in this much time, which in geological terms is actually not that long.
Answer:
because there might be changes in the future which could make the estimates unreliable for example war or decline in economy
Explanation:
Answer:
The per capita birth rate of the population will increase.
Explanation:
Fecundity refers to the ability of an organism in order to produce more number of offsprings. This leads to the increase in the number of population of lizards which is facilitated due to the increasing rainfall. In addition to this, the high abundance of rainfall also allows the number of predators to increase as a result of which it becomes difficult for them to survive.
From the above condition, it can be generalized that the population of lizard will increase at a much higher rate.
1. B
2. D
Reason for 1: to make a wind turbine go it requires A LOT of energy and u are very high up which causes high risk
2: not much to explain due to all the questions being correct.
