Which will most likely form when movement along a plate boundary forces a landmass to be pulled apart?
Oxygen and silicon
Mantle
Both are caused by vibrations.
Continental rift.
S-waves can only travel through solids, but P-waves can travel through all states of matter.
Both are transverse and therefore have a crest and trough.
Rock melts and hardens beneath the ground.
Soil forms as a rock is broken down by the process of weathering and then mixes with other materials on Earth’s surface.
Which describes the formation process of an igneous rock?
