4) In problem 2, analyze all of the triple junctions in velocity space to determine if the triple junctions are stable. If one of the boundaries is a trench, consider both cases in which the role of one of the adjacent plates is either overriding or underthrusting.

What causes the rock to change? Layers of sediment building up over time and pressing down, forming rock. Rain, wind, freezing, thawing, and plant roots growing cause the rock to erode away, leaving behind sediments. Extreme heat and pressure from deep within Earth cause changes to the rock's appearance, structur and composition. The rock slowly changes into a new rock over time. Qestion4 Based on the context in paragraph 4, fossil refers to how igneous rocks were formed over time the remains of dead plants and animals settle to the bottom of an ocean or lake and are covered by mud a trace or print, or the remains of a plant or animal of a past age preserved…
