the African plate is moving toward the Eurasian plate at a rate of a few centimeters per year. how will this area change in 100 million years? in your answer, consider how continents will change and how the Mediterranean sea will change?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's a very nice question. I'd like to join you to answer it. Take a look at this picture first:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

may u plzz just type it in one big paragraph i dont want the answer but tbh i need it im in a rush that not intended to be rude but go on.....Yavar

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but yes i see the picture @Yavar

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is what i got In 100 million years of the African plate moving toward the Eurasian plate at a rate of a few centimeters per second, the Mediterranean sea would disappear and mountains would form. After that long of the plates moving toward each other, they would soon crash and there would be no more Mediterranean sea in between the two plates. After they collide and keep moving, they will form a mountain.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

should i add anything or is it fine the way it is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it's your homework. Isn't it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well im doing extra credit for this class not homwork really im on winter break

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, I prefer to talk about my country. This will CERTAINLY help you answer this question. Wait a minute. I'm gonna find a picture for you.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Because exactly a similar condition applied to my country across millions of years.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Look at this picture:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and this one:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now, I'm gonna tell you what will happen.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok go head

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Million years ago instead of Iran there was a very vast sea. You see it there as Thetys Ocean. Please take a look at Zagros Mountains too.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The Cimmerian plate moved to the north. That vast ocean disappeared and Zagros mountains were pushed northwards. Another thing happened too. Another chain of mountains appeared up there. Today they are called Alborz Mountains.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Today Iran is located on a very high plateau.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So now we can predict what will happen across millions of years in your case.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Remember these three very important points I talked about: 1) Disappearing an ocean 2) Movement of a mountain chain 3) Appearing anothe mountain chain 4) Appearing a high plateau

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now, can you tell me what will happen to Mediterranean Sea?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think it will dissparer??? will that happen??? tbh i didnt really get what u meant

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh so they crash into eachother?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have marked the areas for you too. I think it will disappear and turns to : A High Plateau

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's also possible that in one side of the current sea, some mountain ranges appear

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wow really that happen
