The answer is D. heat flow and the movement of material inside the Earth

That is the only really obvious answer since it's basically talking about plate tectonics.

Heat flow and the movement of material inside the Earth causes earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, and creates mountains and ocean basins.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

The reason why natural disasters occur in the geographical locations is the flow of heat and the movement of material in the inner part of Earth. This causes disasters like earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Apart from this, it also leads to the formation of mountains and ocean basins.

Volcanic eruptions mostly take place when magma comes out of the plates when these plates move away from each other or are pulled apart from each other and there is flow of heat as a result of this magma emerging.

Which rock type is associated with a high-energy environment (such as a very turbulent mountain stream)?
hjlf

Answer:

Conglomerate rock

Explanation:

This is a type of sediment rock that has a coarse-grained texture. It is made up of small pieces of gravel-sized clasts, such as pebbles and cobbles. The mechanism of conglomerate rock formation is by consolidation and lithification.

Conglomerates are found in a variety of sedimentary environments such as, Deepwater marine, Shallow marine, Fluvial, Alluvial, and Glacial environments.

Bowen’s continuous reaction series describes the crystallization behavior of a singlemineral (with variable chemical composition
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

C. plagioclase

Explanation:

From the magma silicate crystals are formed successively when the magma temperature reaches the typical melting temperature for each type of crystal. The first crystals formed at high temperatures can then change their composition or dissolve again. In this way the crystals already formed contribute their ions, molecules and atoms to magma and combine again forming new crystals whose melting temperature is lower than that of the first crystals formed. The new crystals are said to be stable at the lowest temperatures set now. These processes of change are called reactions. As several successive reactions occur as the magma temperature decreases the ordered series of reactions is called the BOWEN series in honor of the Canadian scientist who formulated this concept. There are two types of reactions, the continuous reaction and the discontinuous reaction.

<u> By continuous reaction a crystal formed at high temperatures such as a plagioclase rich in the Ca2 +</u> component gradually varies its composition by replacing a portion of the Ca2 + ions with the Na + ions and a portion of the Al3 + ions with the Si4 + ions. To maintain its neutrality, the replacement of Ca2 + by Na + is coupled with the replacement of Al3 + by Si4 +. The series of continuous reaction starts from the plagioclase rich in Ca2 +, passes through several plagioclase of intermediate composition towards the plagioclase rich in Na +
