This province was created due to compressive forces related to the Big Bend in the San Andreas Fault. This bend and motion also led to rotation and as such, has many mountains oriented at a different direction in comparison to all other mountain ranges in California.

Describe the formation of accretionary prisms (also known as an accretionary wedge) in California geology as revealed in the Coast Ranges. Please answer in 250 words or less. In your explanation, include the following: The specific plate tectonic setting associated with the formation.

A friend tells you of an area in California covered with dark-colored lava, but they noted there were only a few small, steep-sided volcanic cones covered with loose debris.  Quickly, you assess the situation and inform them that:

During a routine assessment, the patient mentions occasionally seeing small ‘dots’ and ‘web-like strands’ floating across the visual field.” (like in the picture below). How should the nurse respond, using clinical judgment to ensure patient safety and appropriate monitoring?
