Answer:

Tectonic plates are large, motile plates of irregular shape, of which the Earth's crust is made. The surface of the plate can be entirely made up of the seafloor (as the Nazca plate) or it can consist of both the continent and the ocean (as the Eurasian plate). Some small plates are completely continental, but all large plates also contain seafloor.

The plates move as a whole resulting in the appearance that the interior of the plate is relatively tectonically passive. Volcanoes, earthquakes and young mountain ranges are located in narrow areas at plate boundaries.

Earth has quakes, earthquakes, when the tectonic plates move. Therefore, tectonic plates do exist on earth.

AveGali [126]

Answer:

First it is important to clarify that your question is incomplete, I do not see the graph you are talking about ..

Although faced with the situation, I took the trouble to investigate in medical pages on this subject, and I conclude that the hypothesis of the doctors is correct ...

Because greater global warming, lower partial pressures of oxygen in the atmosphere (therefore those people who had difficulty breathing will be more affected), greater pollutants in the environment (greater hypersensitivity reactions in allergy sufferers), and the seasons of Heat spread, therefore the pollination processes also and it is there where there is connection with allergies due to ragweed.

Explanation:

Allergies are increased immunological reactions against an antigen, so I added to your question that ambrosia pollen generates more allergies in the respiratory tract than at the cutaneous level, that is why it cooperates with other alterations that environmental contamination generates.

The greater the contamination, the greater the presence of allergies or the longer the allergies will be.

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

Option: D. It cooled very slowly.

Explanation:

Iceland is known as the Land of Fire.  The country is present in the plate boundary of the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates. Being on the top of the Ring of Fire, it has active volcanoes. Hexagonal basalt columns formed from a volcanic eruption. Basalt columns are the result of a cooling process that changes the appearance of the lava. Basalt is a volcanic rock rich in iron and magnesium created from the heated magma that emerges as lava during an eruption.

The photograph given below is from Icelandic national park Jokulsargljufur.
