how do plates with less density react to a Convergent push from an Earthquake?
Answer:
Plate Boundaries: Divergent, Convergent, and Transform
Most seismic activity occurs in the narrow zones between plates.
June 2nd, 2:17 PM
Movement in narrow zones along plate boundaries causes most earthquakes. Most seismic activity occurs at three types of plate boundaries—divergent, convergent, and transform.
As the plates move past each other, they sometimes get caught and pressure builds up. When the plates finally give and slip due to the increased pressure, energy is released as seismic waves, causing the ground to shake. This is an earthquake.
Some of the plates have ocean water above them. Other plates include continents, and some plates include both continents and ocean. The movements of the plates help shape the geological features of our planet. The three main types of plate movements include:
Divergent (Spreading):This is where two plates move away from each other. Molten rock from the mantle erupts along the opening, forming new crust. The earthquakes that occur along these zones, called spreading centers, are relatively small. The Great Rift Valley in Africa, the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden all formed as a result of divergent plate motion.
Convergent (Colliding): This occurs when plates move towards each other and collide. When a continental plate meets an oceanic plate, the thinner, denser, and more flexible oceanic plate sinks beneath the thicker, more rigid continental plate. This is called subduction. Subduction causes deep ocean trenches to form, such as the one along the west coast of South America. The rocks pulled down under the continent begin to melt. Sometimes the molten rock rises to the surface, through the continent, forming a line of volcanoes. About 80% of earthquakes occur where plates are pushed together, called convergent boundaries.
Another form of convergent boundary is a collision where two continental plates meet head-on. Since neither plate is stronger than the other, they crumple and are pushed up. This can lead to the formation of huge, high mountain ranges such as the Himalayas.
When two tectonic plates slide past each other, the place where they meet is a transform or lateral fault. The San Andreas Fault is one of the best examples of lateral plate motion.

Do you believe the media adequately portrays teenagers today?
Answer:
No, I don't think the media accurately portrays teenagers today.
Explanation:
The media in this 21st century seem to have an agenda against teenagers in this day and age. They portray them mostly as video game addicts, social media addicts, disobedient, and downright rebellious.
This is not an accurate representation of teenagers all over the world, even though it may be true for a small section of teenagers. There are teenagers who have produced, developed or invented things that have changed the world, teens like Jack Andraka, who found a less expensive way to identify cancer signs early enough and Ann Makosinski who developed a flashlight that converts body heat to energy.
The media rarely covers such news or gives it wide coverage, but seem to magnify the bad news from some teens.

Explanation:
How does the description of the clock contribute to the development of the story’s theme(s)? Cite evidence in your answer
Answer:
The clock in the story symbolizes the passage of time, which goes with the central theme of the inevitability of death.
Explanation:
The central theme of Poe’s story "The Masque of the Red Death" is the passage of time and inevitability of death. While Prospero, the protagonist, and 1000 nobles hide in the abbey to escape terminal illness called the Red Death they decide to hold a ball under the masks. There are seven rooms, and the big ebony clock stands in the last one. The story describes the events, saying that every night “there came from the brazen lungs of the clock a sound which was clear and loud and deep and exceedingly musical” that musicians and the waltzers stopped their performances “and there was a brief disconcert of the whole gay company”.
This clock symbolizes the passage of time, and its hourly strikes are reminders of mortality. The symbolics is that the whole happy company is enjoying their time – meaning life – trying to use it as much as they can, but that every hour they are reminded that the time is passing, that they lost an hour, and, ominously, that the death is approaching. They all think they will not react the same the next hour – trying to make amends with the mortality – yet they are always shaken by the chiming. No one enters the seventh room where the clock is, which symbolizes the fear of realizing the mortality in fullness.
Finally, at the end, when the dark figure in a robe resembling a funeral shroud appears, Prospero and the noble are afraid, trying to attack him. Prospero corners the figure in the seventh room, and readers realize, as everyone starts dying, that this is the illness and death itself. The story narrates “whose tall figure stood erect and motionless within the shadow of the ebony clock” which symbolizes how death standing in the shadow of the time, always luring us.
In the last passage, we learn the clock has stopped, and that “the light of [it] went out with that of the last of the gay”. Therefore, the time stopped for all once they were all dead, and there; their story was over.
