<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>A) Scatter Diagram</u> can be used to prevent and control a problem.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Scatter diagram is a chart used when the user wants to determine the relationship between cause of a problem and the effects. It also determines one cause and two others. Since it investigates the cause and effects, it is used in problem-solving and controlling problems.

Furthermore, it can be used to analyse problems involving many variations which other charts like histogram, Pareto diagrams cannot analyse. Analyzing the chart checks the relationship between the y-axis and x-axis values by assessing if there is any correlation, whether it is a negative or a positive correlation, and etc.

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

volcanoes and earthquakes is the top tectonic plate affects that can cause extinction

Explanation:

Volcanoes: because of a volcanoes lava intense heat it could kill species. Lava is the hottest natural substance there is on earth. Also the fumes and gases that come from volcanoes are deadly and can kill species that inhale it even if the volcano is miles away.

Earthquakes: the highest stage of a earthquake can be devastating cracking open grounds and destroying everything in its path which also means that it can destroy certain species homes (trees, underground, mountains) which can kill them. Also they can cause land slides which can wipe out a species instantly if strong enough. Even the after affect can causes species to go extinct because if they can't find shelter or food then they could eventually die of starvation or dehydration.

( hope this helps. Have a great day!)
