Use the earthquake distribution map and what you know about boundaries to answer the question. A map showing the tectonic plates of the world. A key shows Depth from 0 to 700 by color. 0 is red and 700 is teal.

Studies have shown that there is a relationship between the type and location of boundaries and the distribution and depth of earthquakes along or near these boundaries. Many earthquakes, shown in the map as wide bands, occur along convergent areas. These areas experience varying depths of earthquakes.

Where would oceanic-oceanic convergence most likely occur?

Nazca plate converging with the South America plate, forming the Andes mountains
Philippine plate converging with the Pacific plate, forming Mariana Islands in the Pacific Ocean
Juan de Fuca converging with the North American plate, forming the Cascade mountains
North America Plate converging with the Eurasian Plate, forming a mid-ocean ridge

Which statements about the fluid mosaic structure of a membrane are correct? select the three correct statements.which statements about the fluid mosaic structure of a membrane are correct? select the three correct statements.the framework of a membrane is a bilayer of phospholipids with their hydrophilic heads facing the aqueous environment inside and outside of the cell and their hydrophobic tails clustered in the center.because membranes are fluid, membrane proteins and phospholipids can drift about in the membrane.the diverse proteins found in and attached to membranes perform many important functions.the kinky tails of some proteins keep the membrane fluid by preventing the component molecules from packing solidly together.membranes include a mosaic, or mix, of carbohydrates embedded in a phospholipid bilayer.
