Ans) A
pakistan is located in the junction of india-eurasia plate and the arabian plate boundaries. chaman fault assosiated with this results in destructive earthquakes in this region
Why does Pakistan experience frequent earthquakes? A. It lies on a convergent collision plate boundary between...
Part A Types of convergent plate boundaries Identify each type of convergent plate boundary Drag the appropriate convergence labels to their respective targets. View Available Hint(s) Hint 1. Plate density and nature ot convergence If the two plates are of equal density, they thrust against each other forming a mountain chain. If they are of unequal density, the plate with higher density sinks beneath the other in a subduction zone, which could result in volcanic activity. Reset Help Oceanic-oceanic We...
Q) The boundary between the Pacific and the North American plate along the San Andreas fault is a _____ plate boundary, and the boundary between the Nazca Plate and the South American plate along the coast of Chile is a _____ plate boundary. transform; divergent convergent; transform transform; convergent convergent; divergent Q) In the rock cycle, ______rocks are created from magma, while _____rocks are created by applying heat or pressure to existing rocks and thus changing their mineral structure. metamorphic;...
What properties cause some magmas to be more felsic than others?Different minerals crystallize at different temperatures, changing the chemistry.Some parts of the mantle are felsic and some are mafic, creating felsic magma in the crust.Water from subducting ocean plate mixes with the magma to create felsic magmaAnimals change the chemistry of the magma, making it more felsic.Silica content in igneous rocks controls (select the correct term)["texture", "viscosity", "crystal size"] which, in turn, controls ["eruption style", "crystal size"] ...
