3. It's because of the heat underneath the crust of the Earth. Because heat rises, the molten rock and such underneath the crust rises to the top and then the movement underneath causes things on top to move.
4. Plates are the different sections that the lithosphere has been cracked into. These plates once all fit together as a giant plate called Pangaea.
5. An earthquake is a sudden, sometimes violent shaking of the ground, as a result of the shifting of tectonic plates, or volcanic eruption.
6. On the magnitude scale, earthquakes range from 2.5 or less (usually never felt but strong enough to be detected by seismograph) to 8.0 or higher. Causes extreme damage; enough to destroy whole cities at once if close enough to the epicenter.
7. Depends on what kind you're looking for. I'd look it up for your specific topic.
8. To apply a forces to something, usually resulting in a stretch.
9. The action of compressing something, to flatten or squeeze by pressure
10. A strain on the layers of something because of pressure, resulting in the shifting of those layers.
11. In areas undergoing extension or stretching. It's when the crust is extended.
12. The hanging wall drops relative to the footwall.
13. This is what happens when the hanging wall <u>rises</u> relative to the footwall. (The opposite of a normal fault)

<em>yes it is right because if we take example of viruses and germs .. new germs and viruses are much modified as compared to old ages because they adopted the ways they can escape from the immunity.. they have an adoption to transmit their DNA material ,also they can take protein coat of host because of which host's immunity cells cannot recognize germs as foriegn particle..and in this way germs and viruses remain for a long time in body due to the adoptations according to age and environment..</em>
Answer:
They had a large brain size of 700 to 1,250 cubic centimeters and large brow ridges with a nuchal torus at the back of the skull.
Explanation:
<em>Homo erectus</em> was one of the species of the homo genus which were considered the first species to have the human-like the feature that is they can stand upright on two legs and were therefore referred to as the upright man.
They showed many evolutionary advances over their ancestors called Homo Australopithecus as they showed encephalization. Encephalization refers to the increase in the size of the brain due to more neuronal complexity and neurogenesis and they possessed about 750 to 1250 cc brain size.
They showed torus at the back of the muscle which can hold the muscle of the neck and also showed the large brow ridges in the front of the skull.
Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.
