Why do volcanoes form linear patterns across the globe?
We know that volcanoes are formed by the sudden release of magma( later lava) from the Earth's mantle through weak spots on the Earth's crust. We also know that the crust floats atop the boiling mantle, slowly moving in one direction. However these magma pressure cauldrons beneath the Earth's crust, which cause the volcanic eruptions, are non-mobile or minuscule in movement at most and for obvious reasons are called hot spots. Therefore as the crust floats atop the mantle the hot spots pierce through the crust creating a chain of volcanoes.
What are the settlement patterns of a city?
Settlement patterns of a city refer to how people are distributed across the urban area. Common patterns include concentric circles (CBD in center, residential areas in rings), radial (spreading out from a center), and linear (following transportation routes). These patterns are influenced by factors like topography, transportation networks, historical development, and zoning regulations.
What is a curved linear chain of volcanoes above a subduction zone called?
Mount Saint Helens in Washington USA is at a convergent boundary
What does linear mean in geography?
In geography, linear refers to features that have a distinct length or orientation, such as rivers, roads, or coastlines. Linear features can impact the layout of cities and transportation networks, as well as influence patterns of development and settlement.
Why are craters aligned in Hawaii?
Craters in Hawaii are aligned due to the movement of the Pacific tectonic plate over a stationary volcanic hotspot beneath the Earth's crust. As the plate slowly moves, new volcanoes form over the hotspot, creating a linear chain of volcanic structures. This movement results in aligned craters and volcanic features across the Hawaiian Islands.

What is scattered and linear and clustered?
Scattered, linear, and clustered refer to different patterns of distribution or arrangement. Scattered refers to items or elements that are spread out irregularly across a space. Linear indicates a straight-line arrangement, where items are organized along a specific line or path. Clustered signifies that items are grouped closely together in specific areas, forming dense clusters.
Why do you think that linear symmetry is sometimes called reflection symmetry?
b/c it reflects across a linear line
What do you use to find plate boundaries?
Linear patterns of earthquakes is one method of detecting them.
What is a linear pattern in geography?
In linear patterns of human settlement, people live near each other in rural areas(small towns) along major roads
How can you apply linear equatoion to business?
Linear equations can used in many areas. They are particularly useful in determining the most economical delivery patterns in trucking and in distribution. They are also used to establish the most effective patterns for production line loading in large scale production
What are three basic population distribution patterns?
linear pattern , concentrated pattern , clustered pattern ...:)
What is the only continent that does not contain a long linear mountain range that stretches across the landmass?
Antarctica is the only continent that does not have a long linear mountain range stretching across it. While it does have mountain ranges, they are more dispersed and not part of a continuous range like in other continents.

What are 3 patterns of settlement called?
They are- Nucleated (clustered), dispersed (seperated), linear (along a road or river/stream)
