Describe three main ways in which plates move along plate boundaries?
Answer: The movement of the plates creates three types of tectonic boundaries: convergent, where plates move into one another; divergent, where plates move apart; and transform, where plates move sideways in relation to each other.
strontium-147 cut into pieces what would be the half -life of each piece?
Answer:
2.62 years
Explanation:
The half life of a material is the time taken for half of the number of radioactive atoms in a radioactive material to remain.
If a radioactive material is cut into pieces, each piece has the same half life as the whole material.
Hence, if Strontium-147 is cut into pieces, each piece will have a half life of 2.62 years, just as the whole material.

Why do you think many languages can coexist peacefully in some countries and not in others? Please help!!!!!
Answer:
Many languages can coexist in some countries because they are united by religion, or the countries function as federations, while in other countries they don't coexist because of cultural differences, but also because of artificially set boundaries.
Explanation:
The language is one of the primary cultural traits. Weirdly enough, even though seemingly harmful, it can be a cause of conflict, though usually based on other factors as well. We can see situations all over the world where there are positive examples wherein one country there are numerous languages spoken and there aren't problems, while in others it is the total opposite.
The countries where numerous languages coexist are usually countries that are united by a religious or political ideology, or they function as federations. Such examples are the USA, Russia, UK, Canada... On the other hand, in the countries where people that speak different languages have different religious beliefs, as well as different political views, have a lot of problems, with people that speak differently often exhibiting intolerance and violence toward each other. Such examples are Nigeria, Mali, DR Congo...

Each layer of a tropical rainforest provides an ideal habitat for different forms of wildlife. Which three descriptions show that this is true? Mammals such as monkeys and sloths live in the middle canopy.Animals like deer and rodents live on the forest floor.Biodiversity levels are low.Birds live in the top canopy.
Answer:
Explanation:
Mammals such as monkeys and sloths live in the middle canopy.
Animals like deer and rodents live on the forest floor.
Birds live in the top canopy.
We have the emergent layer, the canopy layer, understory layer in rainforest.
The emergent layer are made of tall trees find at the top and because they are tall animal such as birds and climbing animals are found here.
Canopy layer consist of tall tress of about 100m they form canopies and have leaves that shades the underground. Animals that feeds on fruit such as monkeys are found here
Understory layer is found below the canopy layer usually the shades area with little light penetration. Animals like insect, rodent, deer are found in the underground canopy.

Answer:
Oceanic plate being destroyed
Explanation:
The convergence at this margin between the oceanic pacific plate and the Continental South American plate causes subduction here.
At this margin, there is crustal destruction.
As the denser Pacific plate subducts under the less dense continental crust, it is increasingly destroyed. Most convergent margin of this type leads to the destruction of the crust. Usually, on an adjacent side, there is a mountain building. Basically, at this margin, the most important thing is that the crust is being destroyed.Which situation would most likely take place in a command economy?

Using the DTM above, what occurs to a population during Stage 2?
Question 34 options:
Birth rate drops while death rate remains the same
death rate drops while birth rates remain the same
birth and death rates are equal
family planning is introduced leading to lowering birth rates
Answer:
During stage 2, the death rate drops while birth rates remain the same.
Explanation:
The first option is not correct because this is a characteristic of the later stages in the DTM.
The second option is correct because, during stage 2, the death rate drops because of improved living conditions and healthcare, while the birth rates remain the same, leading to population explosion.
The third option is not correct because this is a characteristic of the last stage of the DTM.
The fourth option is not correct because such actions are usually taken in stage 3.

Which of the following best explains a possible limitation of the trends assumed from the population pyramid and estimates in the data table?
(A) A period of war followed by a baby boom, similar to that of the 1940s and 1950s, is likely to occur within a generation, increasing the youth-aged cohorts.
(B) Modernization of health-care systems may result in improvements in women’s health and pregnancy and result in more children being born, increasing the youth-aged cohorts.
(C) Labor shortages may cause the government to reduce the legal barriers to immigration, and immigrant populations could increase the working-age cohorts.
(D) Decreasing populations may cause an economic decline, prompting many citizens to emigrate to other more developed countries and decreasing the working-age cohorts.
(E) Production efficiencies gained from computerization and robotization of manufacturing may free parents from long work hours and result in more time to have additional children, increasing the youth-aged cohorts.
Answer:
(D) Decreasing populations may cause an economic decline, prompting many citizens to emigrate to other more developed countries and decreasing the working-age cohorts.
Explanation:
From the bell-shaped population pyramid of Japan, the population of 2019 was about 126,265,000, a decline in the crude birth rates, and an increase of death rather than later led to the stabilization of the population pyramid and has created an aging population in Japan. This is due to internal migration and due to the advancement in technology and increasing use of robots in manufacturing activities has lead to long hours of work.This has lead to a decrease in the drop in population. It's estimated that by 2060 japan will have 40% of population aged above 65 years.As we now know, The greater

compare and contrast the lines of latitude and longitude. How are they same and how are they different??
Answer:
Explanation:
To compare and contrast these imaginary lines of latitude and longitude, we must first understand their meaning.
What are lines of longitude and latitude?
A line of longitude is an imaginary line on the earth surface that specifies the east to west direction of a place on the earth surface.
A line of latitude is an imaginary line on the earth surface that specifies the north to south location of a place on the earth surface.
Both lines of latitude and longitude gives the specific location of a place on the earth surface.
Lines of latitude runs from north to south whereas line of longitude runs from east to west. All line of longitude are great circles, they cut the earth into two whereas all lines of latitude are small circles except the equator. Lines of longitude are numbered from 0° to 180° whereas lines of latitude are numbered 0° to 90°which practice is associated with the Islamic faith
