the amount of sunlight it gets
Name the most active region for earthquake and volcanic activity?
the west because the Andes and rockies are located there
What region of the US has the greatest amount of grasslands?
I was taking an on line test and I got this question right. It's the Great Plains
What tectonic plates caused the 1755 Lisbon earthquake?
The 1755 Lisbon earthquake was primarily caused by the movement of the Eurasian and African tectonic plates. These plates converge along the southwestern coast of Portugal, resulting in frequent seismic activity in the region.
Which characteristic of a geographic region would have the greatest impact on the type of ecosystem that forms in that region?
Climate has the greatest impact on an ecosystem.
What region of the heart produces the greatest amount of contractile activity?
The left ventricle
What is the most likely cause of the volcanic and earthquake activity in this region?
collision of tectonic plates
What is the shadow zone caused by?
A shadow zone is caused by an earthquake. It is a region that is far away from the epicenter of the earthquake where seismic activity is minimized or not present.
What has the greatest effect on the temperature of a region?
the amount of sunlight it gets
Name the most active region for earthquake and volcanic activity?
the west because the Andes and rockies are located there
Can you explain how the transfer of energy as seismic waves is related to the frequency and magnitude of earthquake in a region?
They both based on the amount of energy that is released during earthquake
In the sixteenth century which region of the world experienced the greatest amount of demographic and environmental change?
The Americas experienced the greatest amount of demographic and environmental change in the sixteenth century due to the impact of European colonization, which led to significant population declines among indigenous peoples, as well as widespread deforestation and introduction of new plant and animal species.
Which region of the country includes the greatest amount of federally owned land and what is the percentage?

Which natural region receives the greatest amount of annual precipitation?

What is a deep earthquake?
Deep earthquakes occur in a region of the mantle called the Benioff zone, where seismic activity follows the interaction between a subducting plate and the upper mantle.
Why do tusnamis ocur in the pacific ocean and not the Atlantic ocean?
Tsunamis can occur in any large body of water. The main reason they are more common in the Pacific is because of the large amount of tectonic activity. Tsunamis are usually caused by either an underwater earthquake, or a near water volcanic eruption. Due to the amount of volcanos in the Pacific Ocean region and the tectonic activity (which causes earthquakes) there are many more tsunamis in the Pacific than in the Atlantic.
An economic region is a human or physical?
An economic region is a human region, since economic activity is a human activity.
