In addition, damage to the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system can occur from chronic alcohol abuse. The long-term use of alcohol is capable of damaging nearly every organ and system in the body. The developing adolescent brain is particularly vulnerable to the toxic effects of alcohol.
TYPES OF CONTINENTAL MARGINS. Continental margins are not all alike, but they are not all different either. There are two basic types. Each one has different characteristics, which are a function of the processes involved in the formation of the two types of margins. The âclassicâ margin is based on the U.S. East Coast example.
Constructive or Divergent Margins. At these types of plate margins two plates are moving apart (DIVERGE) from each other in opposite directions. Convection currents moving in opposite directions (caused by the intense heat of the Earth's interior) in the mantle move two plates apart.rocesses: seismicity and vulcanicity. Associated landforms: young fold mountains, rift valleys, ocean ridges, deep sea trenches and island arcs. . Volcanoes and earthquakes mainly occur along plate boundaries where magma can escape from the earth s mantle or where stresses build up between 2 plates rubbing together.
