Which block diagram represents the plate motion that causes the earthquakes that occur along the san andreas fault in california?

The correct answer is - (4).

California is located over a transform plate boundary, which essentially means that it is a plate boundary where the plates are sliding past each other. Because of this, there's horizontal movement supported by the horizontal pressures. The movement of the plates in this manner causes lot of unrest and adjustments into the deeper parts of the crust. Because of those unrest's and adjustments a lot of earthquakes appear in the region, but also the trademark feature of these types of boundaries, the faults. The faults in this type of boundary are parallel, linear, cracks on the ground, and they are parallel to the movement of the plates.

hello!

let's go through all of these words' definitions.

u-shaped valley - where the valley curves down like a u shape

corrie - similar to the hole created at the top of a volcano when it erupts, it's almost like a dent in a mountain

pyramidal peak - a mountain where the peak is very sharp, such as the matterhorn.

arete - two valleys separated by a thin mountain range

i'm going to assume you know how to read a topographic map, but in case you don't, feel free to comment.

now, let's figure out which one's which:

a - seems to be a mountain range separating two valleys, with a mountain running from top center to bottom center and two valleys on either side. therefore, i'd consider this an arete.

b - it looks like a dent into the mountain, like what a corrie is.

c - looks to be a valley, with two steeper sides curving up around the bottom of the valley which has a river in it. i would consider this an u-shaped valley.

hope this !

without the article i believe the answer could be a because algeria is a low soci-economic country in africa and most countries that ahve such qualities lack womens rights
