Answer:

At the moment when the Pacific tectonic plate moved over the hot spot, innumerable rows of islands were created, which make up the Hawaiian island chain.

Explanation:

Plate tectonics is a term used to describe pieces of the lithosphere that move constantly, changing their positions and fitting and colliding with each other. On these plates are located the continents and oceans.

Hot spots, on the other hand, are anomalies in the interior of the earth. They are characterized as points of heat that have the capacity to produce magma and expel it to the Earth's surface.

The Pacific Ocean's tectonic plate can interact with a hot spot. At the moment when the Pacific tectonic plate moves over the hot spot, innumerable rows of islands are created, which make up the Hawaiian island chain.

Answer:

Option D, the "biological ladder"

Explanation:

The food chain is the network of organism in which all are dependent on each other for their food, energy source and survival.  

The circle of life depicts the time frame starting from origin of a life form till its death and the intermediate stages.

The tree of life basically determines which organism has evolved from which other organisms.  

The biological ladder represents the development of species from simple form to a much complex form.

Hence, option D is the right metaphor
