An earthquake occurred three hundred miles off the shoreline, and massive flooding occurred on land as a result. which best describes what occurred?

a. continental shifting resulted in a tsunami.
b. continental shifting resulted in a volcano erupting.
c. tidal activity in the subduction zone caused a tsunami.
d. tidal activity in the subduction zone caused a volcano to erupt.

The correct answer is (A)Continental shifting resulted in tsunami.

Continental shift is the movement of tectonic plates. Earthquakes and tsunami are caused as a result of this. A lateral slipping plate movement can result in earthquake because of the pressure and force formed by the collision of plates. Tsunami comes as a result of this continental shift, the effect of movement of tectonic plates can be observed miles away in the form of tsunami.

succession returns a disturbed

ecosystem to a more stable state. this is also classified into two (2) types:

primary succession and secondary succession. the primary succession arises when

a new land is transformed and a bare rock has been exposed providing an environment

that can be occupied for the first time. while, secondary succession occurs

when a previously occupied environment was disturbed that kills much of all its

community
