When they were joined as Pangaea, the world’s major mountain ranges would have been continuous. <span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif';"> <span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif';">16) If mantle convection suddenly stopped, the continents would no longer move because these currents in the asthenosphere move the tectonic plates, and the continents move with them. <span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif';"> <span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif';">17) Studying volcanoes that erupt from the volcano provides clues about Earth’s interior because the lava and rocks come from inside Earth. <span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif';"> <span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif';">18) Most volcanic activity on Earth occurs at or near tectonic plate boundaries because the magma can work its way to the surface and form volcanoes and there is an opening for the lava to erupt. <span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif';"> <span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif';">19) Rift eruptions in southwest British Colombia would affect the plant life, the animal life and other ecosystems because of the enormous amounts of lava they can release when they erupt. <span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif';"> <span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif';">20) It is difficult to study earthquakes as they occur because you don’t when it will occur, where it will occur and how long it will last. Currently, we use seismographs to measure the amount of ground motion caused by an earthquake that provides us with the time of the earthquake, how long it lasted, and the amount of ground shaking. <span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif';"> <span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif';">21) a) Trench <span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif';"> b) Volcanic island arc <span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif';"> c) Lithosphere (upper mantle) <span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif';"> d) Oceanic crust <span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif';"> e) Asthenosphere (upper mantle)
