Where did the heat come from to evaporate the water from sea water?
the undersea volcanoes.
What parts are youngest on earth's crust?
Directly along active oceanic ridges, such as the mid-oceanic ridge in the Atlantic (which Iceland straddles) and on active volcanoes, such as Hawaii. When lava from volcanoes such as Hawaii and the mostly undersea volcanoes of mid-oceanic ridges cools, it solidifies into brand new rock.
How many countries do not have tsunamis?
Any country could be hit by a tsunami, but because of their location near fault lines, volcanoes and undersea earthquakes some are far more likely to get them
Where in the world can you find volcanoes?
Volcanoes exist along the margins of Techtonic Plates, such as around the rim of the pacific ocean (called the ring of fire) along the length of the Andes and rocky mountains, You also get undersea volcanoes along the mid Atlantic ridge and in the mid pacific (where they form the hawaian island chain).
Underwater earthquakes may cause which of the following?
Tsunamis' can be formed after an undersea earthquake.
What is built by undersea volcanoes?
Some islands may be built by undersea volcanoes.
What are undersea earthquakes?
Undersea volcanoes that erupt.
The Hawaiian islands were formed?
From undersea volcanoes.
What forces made the Hawaiian islands?
Undersea volcanoes that erupted.
Where did the heat come from to evaporate the water from sea water?
the undersea volcanoes.
How were the Hawaiian Islands built?
by undersea volcanoes by dried up volcanic rock
How were the Japanese Islands formed?
undersea volcanoes, Japan lies near the Ring of Fire
What are the three abiotic factors that affect marine ecosystems?
Ships undersea volcanoes and oil spills
Was Hawaii formed by a submarine volcano?
Hawaii was formed but multiple undersea volcanoes, not just one.
What is called when lava from undersea rift zones produces volcanoes and mountain chains?
mid ocean ridges
What causes seamounts?
They are formed usually from extinct volcanoes
Is it possible to force-create a formation of islands by erupting undersea volcanoes?
Not by people, but nature does it all the time (see Hawaii).
