The average starting wage of an apprentice is about 50% of a journey worker's rate of pay. Programs are required to progressively increase the apprentices wages provided the on-the-job training and school performance is satisfactory and in accordance with apprenticeship committee.
The Aleutian Trench formed as the Pacific Plate converged with the North American Plate forcing the Pacific's oceanic plate into the mantle because the Pacific Plate is denser than the North American Plate. The Aleutian Trench and other Trenches formed a subduction zone by converging with other plate tectonics.
This is a list of tectonic plates on the Earth's surface. Tectonic plates are pieces of Earth's crust and uppermost mantle, together referred to as the lithosphere. The plates are around 100 km thick and consist of two principal types of material: oceanic crust and continental crust. The composition of the two types of crust differs markedly, with mafic basaltic rocks dominating oceanic crust, while continental crust consists principally of lower-density felsic granitic rocks.
