Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Divergent.

2. Transform.

3. Transform.

4. Convergent.

5. Divergent.

6. Transform.

Explanation:

A landform refers to a geomorphic or natural feature of the Earth's surface, which typically makes its terrain. Some examples of landforms on planet earth are mountain, plains, valley, hills and plateau.

Basically, the tectonic plates such as the oceanic and continental lithosphere interact in three (3) ways and these are; divergent, transform and convergent boundaries.

Matching the various types of plate boundaries with their description, we have;

1. Divergent: plates are moving apart from one another. An example of a divergent is the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. Mid-ocean ridge is a seafloor or underwater mountain range formed where tectonic plates pull away from each other at a divergent plate boundary. It is approximately about 65,000 kilometers deep. Some examples are the East pacific ridge and Mid-Atlantic ridge.

2. Transform: plates are sliding past one another horizontally.

3. Transform: this boundary is normally devoid of volcanism.

4. Convergent: where lithosphere or crust is sinking into the mantle. An example of a convergent is where subduction zones or collisions occurred such as the west coast of South America.

5. Divergent: characterized by basaltic volcanism and seafloor spreading. A rift valley are formed at where Earth's tectonic plates rifts and it's a lowland region found both at the bottom of oceans as a result of seafloor spreading and on land. Some examples are the Rhine Rift valley and Baikal Rift valley.

6. Transform: it is a boundary that we assign to the San Andreas fault.

2. EXPLIQUE o que foi o tratado de Tordesilhas

Answers

Answer:

El Tratado de Tordesillas dispuso la división del mundo no europeo entre Castilla y el Reino de Portugal, que organizó los primeros viajes de descubrimiento. El tratado fue ratificado por Castilla el 2 de julio de 1494 y por Portugal el 5 de septiembre de 1494.

Tras el descubrimiento de América, el Papa Alejandro VI determinó que todo al oeste de una determinada línea (480 km del archipiélago de Cabo Verde) pertenecía a Castilla y todo al este pertenecía a Portugal. Debido al cambio de la línea de demarcación en el tratado de Tordesillas, una gran parte del Brasil descubierto más tarde pasó a ser posesión portuguesa. Sin embargo, algunos historiadores sostienen que existe la posibilidad de que expediciones anteriores ya hubieran pisado Brasil, lo que implica que entraron en el Tratado de Tordesillas de forma premeditada.

Notice that rocks older than 11 million years are present west of the Juan de Fuca Ridge but not east of the ridge. What could be happening to the sea-floor rocks along line segment C-D that would explain why rocks older than 11 million years no longer exist on the seafloor east of the ridge

Answers

Answer:

Due to volcanic eruptions.

Explanation:

The rocks older than 11 million years no longer exist on the seafloor east of the ridge because of the eruption that occurs on the seafloor which melted the 11 million years rocks. There is enormous volcanic eruption occurs from the ridge present on the seafloor which melted the rocks that are present on the seafloor so that's why we can say that the volcanic eruptions remove all the rocks of 11 years of age.

2. Geologist: collecting rock samples from the site of a volcano. A geologic column can be defined as a collection of rock layers that are typically grouped based on their relative ages in a descending order i.e from oldest to the youngest.

3. Astronomer: studying the life cycle of a star. A star is a giant astronomical or celestial object that is comprised of a luminous sphere of plasma, binded together by its own gravitational force. It is typically made up of two (2) main hot gas, Hydrogen (H) and Helium (He).

4. Environmental scientist: testing water samples to analyze effects of pollution. Pollution can be defined as the physical degradation or contamination of the environment through an emission of harmful, poisonous and toxic chemical substances.

5. Meteorologist: predicting weather patterns in a particular region. Weather can be defined as the atmospheric conditions of a particular area over a short period of time. The elements of weather include precipitation, wind, temperature, atmospheric pressure, relative humidity, cloud, and wind speed.

Answers

Mark Brainliest please

When condensation occurs closer to the
Earth's surface we can see fog, dew or Frost.

1. Fog:- As the temperature of the layers off the air the surface of the earth reduces water vapour condenses it turns into very small water particles and float in the air when the density of the droplets in the air increases fog occurs

2. Dew:- When moisture Laden air near the earth surface comes in contact with very cold objects condensation of vapour takes place and it turns into very small water droplets these water droplets. These water droplets stick to the surface of the cold objects and form dew.

3. Frost:- If the temperature of the air riches below 0 degree Celsius the Dew freezes. this frozen water droplet is called Frost

C. The IMF has established capitalism in Somalia.
D. Warlords signed a peace agreement, unifying the country.

Answers

B. The rule of law failed when the president was forced from office.

The rule of law failed when the president was forced from office.Somalia has experienced a tumultuous and violent past over the last two decades. In 2000. Hence option B is correct .

What  describes the events in Somalia in the last 20 years?

the country's transitional government collapsed, leading to a power vacuum and a period of intense conflict. The rule of law has failed to take hold, with warlords and armed groups vying for power and control. The situation was exacerbated by a devastating famine in 2011, which killed hundreds of thousands of people.

In 2012, Somalia held its first presidential election in over two decades, but the country remains highly unstable. The government has struggled to establish control beyond the capital, Mogadishu, and militant groups such as Al-Shabaab continue to launch attacks.

The situation has been further complicated by external intervention, with various countries and organizations attempting to exert influence over Somalia's political and economic development.

Despite these challenges, there have been some positive developments in recent years. The African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM) has played a key role in stabilizing the country, and progress has been made in rebuilding infrastructure and improving governance. However, much work remains to be done before Somalia can be considered a truly stable and prosperous nation.
