called “Pangea” about 200 million years ago before breaking apart. The three different types of plate boundaries are convergent‚ divergent‚ and transform. These plate boundaries form due to the earth’s outer shell called the lithosphere having multiple plates moving around each other within the earth’s surface‚ allowing them to collide‚ separate‚ or slide past each other. A convergent plate boundary is also known as a destructive plate boundary since two plates are colliding with each other.

societal norms‚ conformity to government regulations and for commercial‚ moral‚ and religious reasons. The protection‚ promotion‚ and enjoyment of the internet come in the wake of the acknowledgment that the internet offers an array of divergent and convergent information at one place. It is possible that information touching on economic‚ political‚ religious as well as cultural tenets can easily be found through the internet. Finding such information without restrictions is beneficial not only

INTRODUCTION Creativity refers to the phenomenon whereby something new is created which has some kind of subjective value (such as an idea‚ a joke‚ a literary work‚ a painting or musical composition‚ a solution‚ an invention etc.). It is also the qualitative impetus behind any given act of creation‚ and it is generally perceived to be associated with intelligence and cognition. Creativity can also be defined "as the process of producing something that is both original and worthwhile" or "characterized

(McGinn-Cardwell‚ 2003). The dual nature of creativity should also be addressed to know when it is appropriate to use divergent and convergent thinking during the creative process. Divergent thinking helps develop fresh ideas (used by the “imagineers”)‚ and convergent thinking is used to apply those ideas and make them valuable. Knowledge inventories along with divergent and convergent thinking allows for idea generation‚ analyzing alternative solutions‚ and for all to be receptive of new thoughts.

Activity 2.4.2: Visual Perception Introduction Except for your brain‚ the eyes are the most complex organ you possess. Your eyes are composed of over two million working parts and their coordinated action can instantaneously set in motion hundreds of muscles and organs in the body. Your eyes allow you to track a fly ball into a baseball glove. They can help you pick out the perfect color to paint your room. Your eyes can help you find your best friend at a crowded concert. These amazing organs

roads to crack. There are three different types of earthquakes Convergent boundary which is where one plate is forced over another plate during movement creating a thrust fault. A Divergent boundary is when the plates are forced apart from each other‚ usually forming a Rift Zone. This is common underneath the water on ocean floors.An example is the Mid Atlantic Ridge. The last one is the Transform fault‚ unlike divergent and convergent‚ the plates here slip by each other. This is also called

Plate Tectonics Plate tectonics is the science and study of causes and relative motions of earth’s lithosphere plates. This theory proposes that earth’s outer layer is made up of plates which have moved throughout earth’s history. It is the scientific theory that attempts to explain the movements of the Earth’s lithosphere that have formed the landscape features seen across the world today. The primary natural hazards facing the islands of the Caribbean are earthquakes and hurricanes. Some of the
