Answer: (Short answer) tectonic plates
Explanation: (long answer) The abundance of volcanoes and earthquakes along the Ring of Fire is caused by the amount of friction of tectonic plates in the area. Along much of the Ring of Fire, plates overlap at convergent boundaries called subduction zones. ... As rock is subducted, it melts and becomes magma.
What forms when two convergent oceanic-continental plates interact?
pls help this is timed
Answer:
Explanation:
As with oceanic-continental convergence, when two oceanic plates converge, one is usually subducted under the other, and in the process a trench is formed. The Marianas Trench (paralleling the Mariana Islands), for example, marks where the fast-moving Pacific Plate converges against the slower moving Philippine Plate.
What is one weather or climate condition that might affect the level of your water table underground?
Answer:
A prolonged drought with very high temperatures can affect the water levels of the water table underground.
Explanation:
The water that is located underground is generally safer when it comes to climate or weather conditions, at least in the shorter run. They are not immune though, as even though they are underground, they are not very deep, and also their levels depend on the outside conditions. Several climate or weather conditions can have an effect on the water table of the underground water, but the one that sticks out the most is a prolonged drought with high temperatures.
A prolonged period of drought will mean that there will be no precipitation for a long period of time. Without precipitation, there will be no new water coming in the undergroung water table. On the other hand, high temperatures will result in intense heating up of the ground, and some of the heat will be reaching the water table underground, so the evaporation will increase. With no water coming in and increased evaporation, the levels of water will drop.

The rock cycle that was shown illustrated how the igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks change to one another.
Igneous rock is formed when magma or lava cools or solidifies. Examples of igneous rocks include diabase, granite, and gabbro.
Sedimentary rocks are formed when organic particles or minerals accumulate on the surface of the Earth.
Metamorphic rock is when a rock undergoes transformation by pressure or heat. This leads to the formation of a new rock. The rock that transforms can be igneous or sedimentary rock.

Why do some islands have regions that receive large amounts of rain annually and other regions of the same island have desert like conditions
Answer:
The reasons for such big climate differences on the same island are topography, shape, and size of the island, wind patterns, and ocean currents.
Explanation:
While many islands around the world tend to have the same climate conditions across all of their territory, there are some that stick out by having total contrasts from one to the other side. A good example of such an island is Madagascar, where one side of the is covered with tropical rainforest, while the other is desert and semi-desert.
Such things occur because of numerous reasons, such as topography, size and shape of the island, wind patterns, and ocean currents. Since we took Madagascar as an example, we can continue with it. It is an island that has an elongated shape in a roughly north-south direction. The central part is dominated by mountains in a north-south direction, while the western and eastern parts are lowlands. The wind generally blows from the northeastern and northwestern directions.
This leads to a situation where the winds and the humidity they bring are blocked by the mountains, so there is intense rainfall on the windward sides, but very little precipitation on the leeward sides. The windward side thus has lush vegetation while the leeward has most barren land and the occasional desert plant here and there.
A popular American hamburger chain successfully entered the fast food market in India by altering the menu to include vegetarian burgers instead of burgers made with beef. This can best be described as
Answer:
stimulus diffusion
Explanation:
Stimulus diffusion is a type of cultural diffusion. That is a process where a trend spreads to a place and then changes to suit the new location and the cultural context of that location. Since they don't consume beef in India they changed the menu because of the culture and because they wouldn't be able to make money off of that product.

Panama is known because it has ... many freshwater fish. a tropical medicine hospital. a large indigenous population. the largest lake in South America.
Answer:
a tropical medicine hospital
Explanation:
Panama is located in Central America,having boarders with the Caribbean Sea and the Pacific Ocean. It lies between Colombia and Costa Rica.
In 1903, the United States took over Panama in order to build a canal there. However, The control of yellow fever, malaria, and other tropical diseases had to be given premium consideration if the completion of the canal in Panama was going to succeed.
U.S. General William Crawford Gorgas, a tropical medicine pioneer eradicated yellow fever and other tropical diseases from Panama during the construction of the canal.
The tropical medicine hospital in Panama was highly instrumental in the control of tropical diseases in Panama. It was later renamed after U.S. General William Crawford Gorgas, chief sanitary officer of Panama.

Because the ________
of the Earth is pulling on air molecules and
pressing it against the ground, our _______
is thinner and thinner
the higher up you go.
Answer:
Because the gravity of the Earth is pulling on air molecules and pressing it against the ground, our atmosphere is thinner and thinner the higher up you go.
Explanation:
Earth is a planet that has an active core, thus it has a reasonably strong gravitational pull. Gravity manages to keep all things on the surface of our planet and the ones that are in the atmosphere to pull them down or keep them near. This affects the atmosphere as well.
The atmosphere is composed of gases, all of which are made out of atoms and molecules. They are very light, so Earth is pulling them towards it. This has resulted in a situation where the majority of the gases are close to the surface, in the lowest parts of the atmosphere, and as we go up there is less and less of them, so the atmosphere is thinner and thinner as the elevation increases.
The term "global warming" refers to
A. the warming of regions of the Earth during the summer
B.
increased average temperatures on the Earth's surface
C. changes in temperature as a result of decreased ozone
D. daily changes in temperature, from sunrise to sunset
Answer:
B. increased average temperatures on the Earth's surface
Explanation:
Global warming is the increase in the average temperature of earth surface as a result of greenhouse gases.
When the greenhouse gases accumulates in sufficient amount in the atmosphere, they lead to global warming. These gases permits long wave radiation to pass through to the earth surface. They interact with short wave radiation and in the process, causes heating.Answer:
B. increased average temperatures on the Earth's surface
Explanation:
I would show evidence on why increased average temperatures on the Earth's surface is referred to global warming. But i'll leave a screenshot of the test ↓

Answer:
In Japan, gender inequality is apparent in the different aspects of social life. It ranked 21st our 188 countries in the gender inequality index. From family to political representation, women face difficulties. The country's family values has been shaped by the female as the homemaker and the male earner. It makes it challenging for women to break from what is historically typical and rise to be part of the "visible" paid economy.
In China, earning inequality has become a notable issue as the women were paid only 75.4% of what men were paid. The women have not been given the same education and work opportunities as the men do. The women have suffered occupational segregation, unemployment or retained in care-oriented career fields. There is also great pressure from family as the women were considered "surplus" if they do not get married by their late twenties.

The Clean Air Act, which was last amended in 1990, requires EPA to set National Ambient Air Quality Standards (40 CFR part 50) for pollutants considered harmful to public health and the environment. The Clean Air Act identifies two types of national ambient air quality standards. Primary standards provide public health protection, including protecting the health of “sensitive” populations such as asthmatics, children, and the elderly. Secondary standards provide public welfare protection, including protection against decreased visibility and damage to animals, crops, vegetation, and buildings.
