What do you expect to find parallel to a rench? a.Hot sopt b.Ocean ridge c.Rift valley d.Volcanic arc
Answer:
d.Volcanic arc
You will expect to find volcanic arc parallel to the trench.
Explanation:
The reason for this is because the denser oceanic crust undergoes what we call subduction process or the bending of the crust towards the mantle. This bending causes depression of seafloor creating trench. And the leading edge of the subducted plate the subducted crust melt forming magma. Addition of volatile material such as water will cause the magma to become less dense, hence allowing it to rise and reach the crust once again and causing volcanic activities on the continental leading plate. Which means, if there is subduction process, trench are formed parallel to the formation of volcanoes.
Here are the three types of Volcano from biggest to smallest
- Shield Volcano
- Composite Volcano
- Cinder Cone Volcano
Shield Volcano may not be the tallest Volcano but it occupies the biggest volume. The largest Volcano on our planet is known as Mauna Loa which is a shield volcano. The largest volcano on our solar system is known as Olympus Mons a shield volcano from planet Mars. Composite volcano or a stratovolcano is the tallest volcano which produce explosive eruption. Cinder cone volcano is the smallest volcano among the three. To know more about the type of volcano kindly visit on the link provided: brainly.ph/question/2082304
The three main categories of Volcano
- Active Volcano
- Dormant Volcano
- Extinct Volcano
Active Volcano are volcanoes which already erupted but have the tendency to erupt again sooner. Dormant Volcano are volcanoes that are not erupted in a long period of time but will still likely to erupt again in the future. Extinct Volcanoes are volcanoes that no one will expect this to erupt again. To know more about Active, Dormant, and Extinct Volcanoes, kindly visit the link: brainly.ph/question/1330608
