Answer:
Sixty percent of all active volcanoes occur at the boundaries between tectonic plates. Most volcanoes are found along a belt, called the “Ring of Fire” that encircles the Pacific Ocean. Some volcanoes, like those that form the Hawaiian Islands, occur in the interior of plates at areas called “hot spots.”

The principle of lateral continuity states that ______. Multiple choice question. sedimentary layers extend until they are cut by younger sedimentary layers sedimentary layers always cover a wide area, extending for tens of kilometers in all directions sedimentary layers extend laterally until they taper out sediments are originally laid down as horizontal layers
Answer:
all rock layers are laterally continuous and may be broken up or displaced by later events
Explanation:
so basically sedimentary layer extend until they are cut by younger sedimentary layers

carbon dioxide is a major contributor to current climate change because it
Answer:
It absorbs less heat per molecule than the greenhouse gases methane or nitrous oxide, but it's more abundant and it stays in the atmosphere much longer. Increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide are responsible for about two-thirds of the total energy imbalance that is causing Earth's temperature to rise

Differentiate between the terms rotation and revolution as related to Earth Movement.
Answer:
the earth rotates, spins, while revolving, taking a path, around the sun
Answer:
See explanation.
Explanation:
Rotation is the spinning of the earth on its axis which it does during orbit. Rotation is an action that occurs by the object moving upon an axis that is inside of the object as it moves. Revolution is the way the earth moves around the sun in an elliptical orbit. Revolution occurs when the object in question is rotated and moved around an axis that resides outside of the object and the object moves along a path equidistance from the point at all times.

We know how rocks form by following the rock cycle. But what about minerals? Consider the image of a typical
volcano. Not only does this volcanic eruption result in the formation of igneous rocks, it results in the formation of
minerals, All BUT ONE statement explains how minerals are formed when a volcano erupts.
A)
Lava begins to cool slowly.
B)
Lava begins the crystallization process as it cools.
Lava cools quickly and forms minerals with small crystals.
D)
Slow cooling and crystallization results in large mineral crystals.
Answer:
The rock components of the crust are slowly but constantly being changed from one form to another and the processes involved are summarized in the rock cycle. The rock cycle is driven by two forces: (1) Earth’s internal heat engine, which moves material around in the core and the mantle and leads to slow but significant changes within the crust, and (2) the hydrological cycle, which is the movement of water, ice, and air at the surface, and is powered by the sun.
The rock cycle is still active on Earth because our core is hot enough to keep the mantle moving, our atmosphere is relatively thick, and we have liquid water. On some other planets or their satellites, such as the Moon, the rock cycle is virtually dead because the core is no longer hot enough to drive mantle convection and there is no atmosphere or liquid water.
In describing the rock cycle, we can start anywhere we like, although it’s convenient to start with magma. As we’ll see in more detail below, magma is rock that is hot to the point of being entirely molten. This happens at between about 800° and 1300°C, depending on the composition and the pressure, onto the surface and cool quickly (within seconds to years) — forming extrusive igneous rock
if this isnt right id say that it is either a or d
Magma can either cool slowly within the crust (over centuries to millions of years) — forming intrusive igneous rock, or erupt onto the surface and cool quickly (within seconds to years) — forming extrusive igneous rock. Intrusive igneous rock typically crystallizes at depths of hundreds of metres to tens of kilometres below the surface. To change its position in the rock cycle, intrusive igneous rock has to be uplifted and exposed by the erosion of the overlying rocks.
Through the various plate-tectonics-related processes of mountain building, all types of rocks are uplifted and exposed at the surface. Once exposed, they are weathered, both physically (by mechanical breaking of the rock) and chemically (by weathering of the minerals), and the weathering products — mostly small rock and mineral fragments — are eroded, transported, and then deposited as sediments. Transportation and deposition occur through the action of glaciers, streams, waves, wind, and other agents, and sediments are deposited in rivers, lakes, deserts, and the ocean.
