d

OpenStudy (anonymous):

They will increase in height due to weathering

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

look it up

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Volcanoes will form where the plates are separating.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u look it up

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i did

OpenStudy (anonymous):

really that qwik xD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah XD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

dude its obvious if tectonic plates seperate then that reveals the earth ... and whats under the earth ???????????????????? BOOOOOM and there goes your valcano lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

everything thats under tectonic plated is mostly magma

OpenStudy (anonymous):

plates *

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The weathering makes it larger i swear i looked it up and a school teacher said it her self

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B those plates are colliding together right, now not moving apart.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

brro...........bro.............bro -_-

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what bro?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

same thing would happen if they collide it well still form a valcano

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no it wouldnt... where did you learn this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the plates will end up slipping on top of one another and sooner or later crush eachother fall in into the earths magma and there goes your valcaon again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

... nvm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

exactly xD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no... i give up on you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u just keep on going

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cause im awesome :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@makiscool1 that link just proved my point xD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what link?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did u read the part that says

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Most volcanoes are formed by the movement of tectonic plates on the surface of the earth. These plates are basically huge pieces of rock that ‘float’ on the mantle (a layer of the earth that is sort-of liquid rock). The tectonic plates are in constant motion, albeit very slow motion. They sometimes move toward each other, other times they’ll move apart, and still other times one will sink while the other rises above it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its says volcanos form out of nowhere but didn't say anything about it forming in between mountains

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but the question says that when the plates move apart volcanoes will form. the plates for the Himalayan mountains are colliding right now so the mountains will grow.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because the mountain already is the shell of the valcano all it needs is the plate below it to crumble

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but dont plates need to move together in order to form a volcano?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes it can form into a volcanoes but not by what the question says.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and even y some mirical the platesdont crumble by coliding then the mountain will soon crumble with all the push from the bottom of it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok u win ur right im wrong..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

adios aie aie aie!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well im not trying to argue lol just saying
