Earth's crust is made up of relatively rigid plates that ride atop Earth's hot, semiliquid mantle. (2) The plates are called tec

tonic because they're in constant motion. (3) They can move because Earth's mantle is a very hot and semiliquid fluid called magma. (4) Volcanoes are a result of magma rising up or erupting through a plate, particularly where plate boundaries are moving against each other. (5) Also, when plates slide against each other, causing friction along adjacent plate boundaries, earthquakes frequently occur. (6) Therefore, we often find volcanoes and earthquakes along plate boundaries. (7) Plates may also collide. (8) When that happens, mountain ranges are formed. (9) For example, the collision of the plate carrying the Indian subcontinent created the Himalayan Mountains when it collided with the Asian plate..   What is the topic sentence for this passage?

Which statement is a likely interpretation of Williams's use of the word "unsignificantly" in his poem?
GarryVolchara [31]
<span>"Unsignificantly" in William Carlos Williams's poem "Landscape with the Fall of Icarus" is meant to indicate the relative prominence of the mythological event. Rather than portraying the fall of Icarus as the main focus of the painting, artist Pieter Brueghel places it in the background, a place of relative unimportance. The significance here is that the world continues on with mundane, everyday events even while extraordinary things occur. Williams uses the term "unsignificantly" to acknowledge the deliberate choice of depicting the death of Icarus in an mundane and rather unremarkable way.</span>
