Answer:

d. deep sea trench

Explanation:

    Ocean-continent convergence: if a plate has a continental edge, it rides the ocean plate, because the continental crust is lighter and subdues more easily than the oceanic crust. The continental border is wrinkled and rises in a mountain belt, parallel to the deep sea trench. The enormous forces of collision and subduction produce great earthquakes along that limit. The west coast of South America, where the South American Plate collides with the Nazca Plate (oceanic), is a subduction zone of this type. The Andes mountain range rises on the continental side of the border, with active volcanoes and large-scale earthquakes.

A concept map of evolution. Darwin's theory of evolution is biology's core theme that accounts for life's unity seen in DNA and
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

The basic idea of biological evolution is that populations and species of organisms change over time.

Explanation:

Today, when we think of evolution, we tend to relate this idea to a person: the British naturalist Charles Darwin. In the 1850s, Darwin wrote a controversial and influential book called<em> "The Origin of Species"</em>. In it, he proposed that species evolve and that all living things can trace their ancestry to a common ancestor. Darwin also suggested a mechanism for evolution: natural selection, in which inheritable traits that help an organism survive and reproduce, become more common in a population over time.
