thisisaweirdblog.blogspot.com doesn't really fit the theme and purpose of this blog. Shouldn't it be, thisisanindianblogaswellasanemoblog.blogspot.com?
Geography test today was ok. Within 1 minute of the ending of the test, there were about 4-5 debates going on about the last question. This House Believes That the diagram for the last question should be a transform boundary. I am the opposition.
Good evening judiscators (or whatever it is) and members of the desktop, I am the first and only speaker from the opposition team. Firstly, it is important to realise that the question was asking for the cross section of the North American Plate and JUAN DE FUCA PLATE, not the Pacific plate. In the atlas, it states that the JDF plate and the NA plate converge. If the question was asking about the Pacific Plate and the NA plate, then it would be true that the diagram should be of a transform boundary.
For my second substantiate, a subduction zone would be the area where a denser plate (in this case the oceanic plate) subducts. In Figure 2, the line where the cross section should be drawn indicates that the subduction zone should be included in the diagram. How would a transform boundary have a subduction zone?
Therefore, this argument cannot stand.
