PLEAAAASSEEEEE HELPP! A volcano forms near a tectonic plate boundary. What can you infer about the formation of this volcano?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The volcanoes are directly associated with the convergent type of plate boundary.

In a convergent boundary, two plates move towards each other. Due to their collision, a subduction zone is formed where the denser plate goes down below the other less dense plate, and the trench lies above this zone, which is a long, narrow depression and marks the boundary between the two distinct plates.

As the denser plate subducts, it melts and mixes up with the magma. This magma then rises upward due to the force exerted by the convection current. This magma then reaches the surface towards the over-riding plate, resulting in the formation of volcanoes, or volcanic or island arcs.

Thus, the convergence of two plates leads to the formation of a volcano.
Answer 2
Answer: You can infer that the volcano was formed from a convergent boundary (two tectonic plates that collide, and for a volcano specifically one plate probably went under the other pushing up magma underground).

Since the early 1990s, geneticists have produced____________ crops that yield fruits and vegetables commonly found in U.S. supermarkets.

Answers

Since the early 1990s, geneticists have produced "genetically modified" crops that yield fruits and vegetables commonly found in U.S. supermarkets. Genetically modified plants (and also applicable to animals) in agriculture are those plants whose DNA are being modified using genetic engineering techniques.

B, Genetically modified.

Pendulum


Bow and Arrow


Roller Coaster

Answers

Answer:

Neglecting, air resistance, friction and breaking, all the condition has conservation of mechanical energy.

Explanation:

  • The law of conservation of mechanical energy suggests that the mechanical energy in a locked system with out any destructive forces like friction or air resistance remains always the same (constant).
  • The energy may be converted between kinetic energy, potential energy, gravitational potential but energy do not get decreased in any cases as mentioned in the option.
  • So all the cases mentioned above shows the conservation pattern of mechanical energy.
