Answer 1

Answer:

1. When we talk about tectonic or lithospheric plates, we mean the sections into which the lithosphere is cracked. The surface of the Earth is divided into 7 major and 8 minor plates. The largest plates are the Antarctic, Eurasian, and North American plates.
2. Built by Hawaiian hotspot volcanism, Mauna Loa -- the largest mountain in the world -- is a classic example of a shield volcano
3. The continuous process of leveling of the earth surface by natural forces is called. ... The continuous process of levelling of the earth surface by natural forces is called DEPOSITION.
4. When large amounts of alluvium are deposited at the mouth of a river, a delta is formed. ... These sediments form the flat, usually triangle-shaped land of a delta.
5. Glaciers begin to form when snow remains in the same area year-round, where enough snow accumulates to transform into ice. Each year, new layers of snow bury and compress the previous layers. This compression forces the snow to re-crystallize, forming grains similar in size and shape to grains of sugar.
6. 'Cliffs' is almost vertical walls of rocks formed by wave erosion.
