The San Andreas Fault is in California
True. The San Andreas Fault is a major transform fault line in California that extends over 1300 km. It is a complex system of faults rather than a single continuous line, with some segments reaching depths of up to 16 km.
True. The movement of the North American plate and the Pacific plate, which includes the Nasca plate, is responsible for the major geological features in California. This movement has created the San Andreas Fault, which is a transform boundary between these two plates and has led to earthquakes and the formation of mountain ranges in California.
False. Mountains that begin when molten material reaches Earth's surface and then cools and solidifies are known as volcanic mountains. Fault-blocked mountains are formed when tectonic forces cause the Earth's crust to be uplifted and tilted along faults.
False. A northerly wind comes from the north and moves towards the south.
False. Earth is actually closest to the sun during the month of January.

False; The Baja California (meaning Lower California) is south of California.
False.
false
false
Actually that would be true. The Spanish did first settle California. glad i could help ;)
That answer is false
Yes, the San Andreas Fault in California is an example of a transform boundary where two tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally. This movement causes earthquakes and has resulted in the offset of the sea floor spreading zone in the region.
False
True AND False OR True evaluates to True. IT seems like it does not matter which is evaluated first as: (True AND False) OR True = False OR True = True True AND (False OR True) = True AND True = True But, it does matter as with False AND False OR True: (False AND False) OR True = False OR True = True False AND (False OR True) = False AND True = False and True OR False AND False: (True OR False) AND False = True AND False = False True OR (False AND False) = True OR False = True Evaluated left to right gives a different answer if the operators are reversed (as can be seen above), so AND and OR need an order of evaluation. AND can be replaced by multiply, OR by add, and BODMAS says multiply is evaluated before add; thus AND should be evaluated before OR - the C programming language follows this convention. This makes the original question: True AND False OR True = (True AND False) OR True = False OR True = True
San Andreas, California is actually a bit EAST of Stockton, California. By accessing the "Fault Map" link provided below, you can readily see that the fault zone is actually WEST of San Francisco at that latitude. By accessing the "Field Guide" link, you can see a VERY GOOD photo of the fault, shot from the air. Go a little further on that link to see some VERY IMPRESSIVE photos of California's biggest fault. (800+ miles in length!)
