The rate of pacific plate motion is 7 centimeters per year.

<h3>Movement of pacific plate</h3>

The rate of pacific plate motion is seven centimeters which is equals to 2.75 inches per year i.e. about the rate at which fingernails grow. The main reason behind the movement of Pacific Plate is due to sea floor spreading from the East Pacific Rise (divergent margin) in the Gulf of California.

While on the other hand, the North American Plate moved to the west and north west due to sea floor spreading from the Mid Atlantic Ridge (divergent margin) so we can conclude that the rate of pacific plate motion is 7 centimeters per year.

The legacy of the Mughal Empire in India is visible through which of the following?
IgorC [24]

Answer:

All of the above are correct.

Explanation:

The Mughal Empire was an empire that existed in India for several centuries. It emerged as a military power in Central Asia, but it set its eyes on India and after successive military campaigns big portion of India was conquered. The Mughals were of mixed Turkic and Mongol ancestry when they came to India, and they were also Muslim, while over time there was also gradual Persian influence.

This resulted in bringing in new cultural characteristics which resulted in some changes in India. A new type of art was introduced, the style of architecture changed, and there was a big religious influence. The legacy can be seen even nowadays, as the artistic elements that the Mughals brought in are still present, the architecture as well, with a lot of historical monuments being made by them, and a large portion of the population in the Indian subcontinent is Muslim.
