Answer:
When discussing drought, one must have an understanding of aridity and the difference between the two. Aridity is defined, in meteorology and climatology, as "the degree to which a climate lacks effective, life-promoting moisture" (Glossary of Meteorology, American Meteorological Society). Drought is "a period of abnormally dry weather sufficiently long enough to cause a serious hydrological imbalance". Aridity is measured by comparing long-term average water supply (precipitation) to long-term average water demand (evapotranspiration). If demand is greater than supply, on average, then the climate is arid. Drought refers to the moisture balance that happens on a month-to-month (or more frequent) basis. If the water supply is less than water demand for a given month, then that month is abnormally dry; if there is a serious hydrological impact, then a drought is occurring that month. Aridity is permanent, while drought is temporary.

Answer:
D. magnetic polarity reversals
Explanation:
The marine magnetic anomalies are the result of two things; the seafloor spreading at the mid-ocean ridges and the magnetic polarity reversals.
The mid-ocean ridges are the places where the new crust forms. This places also have big influence on the magnetic anomalies, with the reason being that the magnetism has higher influence in this parts.
Also, the magnetic polarity reversals play a big role. The Earth has not always had the same magnetic polarity, and multiple times throughout its past the North and South Poles have been switching places when it comes to the magnetism.
The igneous rocks on the ocean floor have proof in them about this, as the metallic components are reacting to the magnetism and face toward the stronger magnetic field.
Answer:
Hotspot
Explanation:
Because a hotspot is an volcano and this illusion shows lava which is what's in an volcano. Shows the top as smoky which means it could have been erupting.
