On the Newtonian theory of gravity, gravitation affects anything with mass. Assuming that none of the answer choices is the only thing that exists in the universe, all of the answer choices are subject to the law of universal gravitation (hence “universal”).
Satellites, water, frogs, and stars all have mass as they are all composed of matter. Thus, all four answer choices should be circled.
Answer:
D, the lithosphere. (CRUST AND UPPER MANTLE)
Explanation:
A tectonic plate (also called lithospheric plate) is a massive, irregularly shaped slab of solid rock, generally composed of both continental and oceanic lithosphere. Plate size can vary greatly, from a few hundred to thousands of kilometers across; the Pacific and Antarctic Plates are among the largest. Plate thickness also varies greatly, ranging from less than 15 km for young oceanic lithosphere to about 200 km or more for ancient continental lithosphere (for example, the interior parts of North and South America).
