The source of the forces that move the tectonic plates along this plate

boundary is the convection current in the mantle. Hence, the correct

option in option (B)

<h3>What are Tectonic plates ?</h3>

Tectonic plates refers to the Spheres that are found in the uppermost Mantle of the Earth .

The Tectonic plates are also called the Litosphere .

The Motion of the Plates about the axis causes the Tectonic demarcations which are Know as the

Convergent

Divergent

Transform

Now these Plate are formed by the Convection of Currents in the Earths's Mantle

That is, the Dynamics of Current in and around the Earths Mantle brings about the tectonic plates

Hence the the correct option in option (B)

78.9 + 890.43 - 21 = 9.5 x 10^2
maria [59]

948 or 9.48 x 10^2

There are two sets of rules for significant figures

• One set for addition and subtraction

• Another set for multiplication and division

You used the set for multiplication and division.

This problem involves addition and subtraction, and the rule is

The number of places after the decimal point in the answer must be <em>no greater than the number of decimal places in every term</em> in the sum.

Thus, we have

78.9

+890.43

-21.

= 948.33

The "21" term has the fewest digits after the decimal point (none), so the answer must have no digits after the decimal point.

To the correct answer is 948 = 9.48 x 10^2. It has three significant figures.
