Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

Below

Explanation:

The centers pushed against one another and rose.

When the books pushed up, it resembled real life converging tectonic plates which collide to create the tallest mountain ranges in the world (Like the Andes and Mt. Everest)

I would make sure all the bookshelves, wall hangings, and other things of that sort are anchored to the wall in preparation. I would also have an emergy go-bag and a plan with my family in case we got seperated. During the quake I would get underneath a table.

Small pieces of rock often break down further through: weathering folding irrigation volcanoes
anzhelika [568]

The correct answer is - weathering.

The weathering is the process that manages to break down the rocks into very small particles. It can come in multiple different ways, like through the influence of mechanical or chemical ways, but the end result is always the same, the rocks are losing small particles little by little, and over time there's nothing left from them. The weathering is a process that has the tendency to flatten the landscape, so it manages to create a balance between the rising up of the landscape, with its flattening.
