when platy materials have a parallel alignment, a rock is ____

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The rock texture with aligning parallel platy grains is to exhibit metamorphic foliation. Most metamorphic rocks have a platy or planar structure which is caused by the parallel alignment of micas and/or other flat mineral so this structure is called foliation. Metamorphic rocks can be foliated or non-foliated.

The correct answer is B. The oceanic plate slides under the continental plate, and part of it melts to form magma that rises up through the continental plate.

Explanation

Subduction is a convergent activity between two tectonic plates, an oceanic and a continental one. In it, the heavier oceanic plate gets under the continental silver and melts into the mantle. This activity gives rise to ocean trenches, volcanoes, and island arches. According to the above, the correct answer is B. The oceanic plate slides under the continental plate, and part of it melts to form magma that rises up through the continental plate.

El Niño is a well- known weather phenomenon. In Ecuador and Peru, fisherman knew about the phenomena long before it was well known because their fishing would be very poor during El Niño conditions. Normally Peru and Ecuador have a remarkable fishery because there is a prominent upwelling along the coast producing planktonic blooms that feed the entire ecosystem. This upwelling is driven by surface wind conditions. From your knowledge of currents and wind conditions, which of the following happens during El Niño conditions in this area?
A) The winds change from east to west offshore flow) to onshore flow or weak winds during El Niño conditions.
B) The winds shift from prevailing southwesterlies to stagnant, doldrum conditions during El Niño.
C) The winds shift from west to east onshore flow) to offshore flow east to west) during El Niño conditions.
D) The winds shift from south to north, along the coast, to west to east, across the coast.

Answers

Answer:

A. The winds change from east to west offshore flow to onshore flow or weak winds during El Niño conditions.

Explanation:

The fisherman and other people who goes into sea predict the weather with the help of winds, When winds flow from east to west the onshore flow is weak. The fishing will be poor in these condition.

Answers

Answer:

The zone of convergence between sub-tropical and polar air masses, and where frequent traveling storms take place, is along the sub-polar latitudes.

Explanation:

Convergence zones are meteorological systems that have a strong impact on global climate quality. These systems are formed by the interaction of various meteorological events that occur between different latitudes.

The convergence zone, which encompasses the subtropical and polar air masses, has an influence on the amount of storms that occur frequently. This convergence zone is located along subpolar latitudes, being strongly influenced by the humidity found in this region.

Answers

Answer:

Gentrification.

Explanation:

Gentrification is the renewal and rebuilding of the urban environment, which takes place when wealthier middle-class people move to declining areas, displacing the lower-class people there. As a result of gentrification, the average family income in the community increases and the number of members decreases. This is believed to be due to the departure of poorer residents who are unable to pay the increased rent and other real estate and land taxes. Old industrial buildings are often converted into dwellings and shops. In addition, new stores and service facilities are moving to the area, serving a wider customer base. This in turn increases the attractiveness of the region for more affluent immigrants and reduces accessibility for the poorer.  This process is often made possible by government-funded investments to improve local infrastructure, mortgages for poor and first-time home buyers, and financial bonuses for owners of dilapidated houses. Following the implementation of these economic measures, crime in the area tends to decrease and real estate prices and tax revenues rise.

Just like river valleys on land, ______ are V-shaped and formed through the process of erosion. They are believed to be created when ocean levels fall and the continental slope becomes exposed.

Answers

Answer:

submarine canyons

Explanation:

Erosion can be defined as a geological process which typically involves the wearing out of earthen (soil) materials and the transportation of these materials by natural forces like water, wind, etc. Soil erosion is greatest when the soil is steep.

The steepness of a body such as river or stream refers to the downward slope or gradient of the body of water.

Generally, the steepness of a body affects the rate at which other materials would flow or move around. Thus, the steeper a river or stream, the greater would be its rate of erosion.

Just like river valleys on land, submarine canyons have a V-shape and are typically formed as a result of an erosion on a land surface or area.

Hence, they are considered to be created when there is a fall in ocean levels and the continental slope becomes exposed.

The examples provide evidence for Alfred Wegener’s theory of continental drift. Determine whether each example is a form of biological, geological, or climatic evidence.

Answer:

The correct answer is "Divergent boundary in the ocean ".

Explanation:

The so-called divergent limits when two oceanic plates move apart. Ultimately, divergent borders between hemispheres or continentals generate rifts that eventually generate rift valleys.Alongside oceanic flats seem to be the dynamic or energetic divergent bounds as well as they are frequently dubbed midfield furrows.
