Correct answer choice is :
<h2>A) Former retail centers have been replaced by large malls.</h2><h2 /><h3>Explanation:</h3><h3 />
Before the arrival of the Colonial era in the region which was later called Nigeria, the people were involved in the management of the physical growth of their region, an activity that was defined as traditional establishment plan. Records of the early preachers and explorers showed the presence of cities and towns such as Kano, Zaria, Ibadan, and Oyo in the territory.

In the 19th century , it was a belief that , the settlers were destined to expand in the North American region .
The three themes were as follows -
1. Duty to accomplish an irresistible destiny .
2. The special virtues of the people of America and American institutions .
3. To remake and redeem the west in an image of the agrarian American .
Hence , the correct answer is D) Manifest Destiny .
The correct answer is - Seafloor spreading at the mid-ocean ridge provides the mechanism for tectonic plate movement.
Harry Hess is one of the people that is most important when it comes to the proving and world wide acceptance of the continental drift theory.
Hess was very interested in the topic, and he was constantly looking for clues that would bring light to it and finally have a definite proof of it. While sailing through the Atlantic and doing some examinations, Hess noticed that there high mountains in the water, having flat peaks, and being arranged in an interesting manner. These underwater mountains, named guyouts, were the highest at a certain point, and than on both sides, as the distance was increasing they were becoming smaller and smaller.
What Hess stumbled upon was the seafloor spreading and how it works, and he recognized that quickly. He immediately went on to share what he discovered, that there's magma coming from bellow, solidifying and spreading, thus creating new crust while pushing the old crust away from the center, which is the reason why the continents are moving.
The correct answer is - Tethys Ocean.
The Tethys Ocean was an ocean that was situated between the European and African continents, through what is now the Middle East and parts of Central Asia, and the northern half of the Indian Ocean. Because of the geologic activities, mainly the movement of the Indian plate towards Asia, and the Alpine orogenesis, the ocean was becoming smaller and smaller, and it started to be divided into smaller pieces, until it totally disappeared. One of the remains of this ocean is the largest lake in the world, the Caspian Lake, often referred to as Caspian Sea, and it can easily be seen that this body of water was once part of a much bigger body of water with saline water, because it itself has saline waters.
Answer:
- the distribution of earthquakes
- certain fossil distributions
- the distribution of volcanoes
- the location of mountain chains
Explanation:
The plate tectonics are crucial for the processes that happen on the surface or near it on our planet, as well as the physical features of it. The movement of the tectonic plates causes lot of stress when they interact, and from that stress, the crust deep inside cracks and adjusts, which releases a lot of energy and causes earthquakes. Also, on the plate boundaries, because the crust is cracking and is not as tough, the magma from the mantle manages to rise up, and as it reaches the surface it lifts up the land in a cone shape, creating volcanoes, be it as island or continental arcs. When continental tectonic plates collide, they don't subduct, but push against each other, and that enormous pressure lifts up the area around the boundary, gradually giving rise to mountain chains. The fossils are n interesting example as well, as they are one of the best clues about the movement of the tectonic plates. There are lot of fossils that are identical, from the same species, but found on different continents that are not connected in the present, indicating that in the past the continents had different positions and were connected.
