Answer:

B.) Red Volcanic Rock

C.) Lava Rock covered by Sulphur

Explanation:

Igneous rocks are rocks that forms from the cooling and solidification of magma. Magma is a melt or molten rock. Magma is usually derived from rocks that have been buried and subjected to extreme temperature conditions.

Red volcanic rocks and lava rocks covered with sulphur  are classified as volcanic rocks. Volcanic rocks are formed from magma that settles and cools on the surface of the crust. These magma is called lava.

Slate is a metamorphic rock and sandstones are sedimentary in nature.

jeyben [28]

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.

Which of the following hazards would you expect to see at a CONVERGENT plate boundary associated with a continent-continent COLL
mixer [17]

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).
