In the earlier 20th century, a group of German scientists named Max Wertheimer, Wolfgang Köhler and Kurt Koffka, noticed that people tend to organzie a cluster of information into a Gestalt.
Gestalt is a German word which means the way things are placed or put together as a whole. In the field of phychology, it can be defined as a pattern or configuration. In this context, it included the human mind and its behavior as a whole.
The Gestalt theory states that:
"The whole of anything is greater than its parts and that attributes of the whole can't be deduced by analyzing any of the parts on their own accord"
The answer is A. Mountains form because tectonic plates overlap. Earthquakes form because of the moving of tectonic plates. The moving of tectonic plates causes holes in the crust so magma from the mantle escapes and erupts from volcanoes. I hope I helped!
