This is a series of just 3 questions.. Each question has to have a minimum of 200 words at least
and my book must be used as one of the references. APA formatting is required with
in text citations and references. No plagiarism, This professor is a stickler
for that, she really watches for it apparently. This needs to be done by Wed.

interest me at all, I never was interested in Science.

My book is:
Lutgen, F. K., & Tarbuck, E. J. (2011). Foundations of earth science
(6th ed.). Upper Saddle River, NJ: Prentice Hall.
1. At one time it
was thought that the deep-ocean trenches at subduction zones would be a good
place for disposal of high-level radioactive waste. Why is this not a good
idea? Explain what can happen at a subduction zone and what might occur if the
waste were buried there. (Hint: see oceanic-continental convergence.) ( At least 200 words)
2.
How does the plate tectonics theory help explain the existence of fossilized
marine life in rocks atop the Ural Mountains? Be sure to include a description
of the specific process(es).( At least 200 words)
3.
After reading Chapter 8, apply what you have learned so far to discuss the
geologic history of the area where you live or grew up. Discuss some of the
major factors that might have played a role in shaping the local terrain (major
rivers, sea-level changes, volcanoes, ancient sea beds, glaciers, earthquakes,
etc.). If you need to, spend a few minutes researching your county or state
on-line, (google your state and “geologic history”). Be sure to list all
references that you use in your answer.
This
particular question is a discussion question, The state in which I grew up and
currently live in is Tennessee.This question is a more personal question and
the book reference is not really required but other references used is
required.
