Where tectonic forces occur, earthquakes occur due to vibrations caused during impact of tectonic plates. Volcanoes are formed when lava forms are exposed during impact of tectonic plates.
The Inca Empire, or Inka Empire (Quechua: Tawantinsuyu), was the largest empire in pre-Columbian America. The administrative, political and military center of the empire was located in Cusco in modern-day Peru. The Inca civilization arose from the highlands of Peru sometime in the early 13th century
Answer:
Mid latitude cyclone are low pressure regional cyclone system formed in 30 to 55 N or S. In this region continental polar and tropical air masses collide to form fronts. Fronts are the boundary between two air masses. This front pushes the warm air to the north and cold air to the south and generating a clockwise rotation. Cyclone starts to form from southwest and reaches mature stage to form a well developed cold front and warm front.This cyclone become weak, both cold and warm front merge as occluded front, this causes the snow and poor weather condition in northeast US, same time southwest is the formation zone, so mild temperature.
Answer:
Option (C)
Explanation:
The sharing of a convergent plate boundary between two continental plates results in the formation of a sandwich pattern, where the rocks at the edges of both the plates are crushed and crumbled and folded. Here the magma beneath the plates cannot rise up to the surface due to its high thickness, so it does not lead to the formation of volcanoes. For example, the Himalaya.
There is the possibility of occurring frequent landslides at the higher elevated mountainous areas due to the steeper slope of the mountains. It can also lead to the occurrence of flood, as there is the presence of plateaus that are formed at the top of the mountains that has the ability to trap water within them.
Thus, the correct answer is option (C).
