Stone Mountain, found in North Georgia, has a unique history. It was formed of magma that hardened underground. This formation is called a pluton. Over millions of years a few processes caused the pluton to be exposed. First, it was pushed up by tectonic plates that built the Blue Ridge Mountains. Then the rock was exposed by earthquake action and erosion.

Answer: tectonic plates

<u>Explanation: </u>

The Stone Mountain is a 514 meter tall broadly uniform monolithic structure that is situated in Georgia. The action of plates that caused the formation of the Blue Ridge Mountains also triggered the coming up of the Stone Mountain to the surface which existed at a certain depth inside the Earth's crust.

In order to carve out valleys, glaciers have to be strong enough to drag rocks and boulders down the mountainside, but what else
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

e. To create valleys, glaciers have to be constantly advancing.

Explanation:

Although glaciers look like massive, solid blocks of ice, they actually move in a very slow manner, which is difficult to detect by the naked eye. The pressure that the glacier receives from the weight of the ice causes it to deform. As these changes occur, the melt water at the bottom of the glacier allows it to slide. It is this movement that allows for the formation of glaciers, as glaciers have to be constantly advancing in order to form valleys.

maxonik [38]

Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

  • As Alexander von Humboldt surveyed and observed the far and distant lands of the South American continent he found that the species of plants and animals to be well distributed in higher latitudes and this shift in the plant species was caused by the rise of temperatures in lakes and seas.
  • Thus the species that became extinct were ones that could not adapt and find a suitable habitat for the development and growth and thus found distributed at greater altitudes.
  • After the study came in 1935 and the showed the distribution of plants and animals til 2005, the western united states had most of the plants i.e 72% distributed in lower altitudes as these plants species adapted to the low lying areas as due to the desert and dry conditions that developed in that year.
