Next, speak to Lieutenant Graves in the hallway, who will inform you that the witch has escaped and the operation has been sabotaged.
The North American plate also serves to illustrate this difference. The west coast is the active margin, and is the location of earthquakes, volcanoes, and mountains. The Eastern Seaboard is a passive margin, as is the Gulf Coast. These are the low-relief areas of our continent, and are the locations of such exciting places as New Jersey, the Barrier Islands, the swamps of Florida, and the Mississippi delta.
â¢ Pacific = Active Margin geologic activity 11 The ocean floor can be classified as (a) Continental Margins âthe submerged outer edge of a continent (b) Ocean Basin â the deep seafloor beyond the continental margin There are two types of continental Margins (a)passive or trailing margins: margin of continent that moves away from spreading center â Atlantic-style margins (also Artic Ocean, Antarctica and Indian Ocean). Very little volcanic or earthquake activity is associated with passive margins. (b) active or leading margins: plate boundary located along a continental margin â ocean trenches where there is subduction of oceanic lithosphere â narrow, steep, with volcanic mountains (West Coast of the Americas). Active margins are the site of volcanic and earthquake activity. 12 Continental Margins
