The correct answer is A. 110GPa

Explanation:

Pressure refers to a force applied to a surface or object either by another object or factors such as the atmosphere. This is calculated considering the force applied and the area. Additionally, this factor can be measured using the unit gigapascals (GPa), which is more common in geography and related areas.

In this context, the lower mantle, which is the layer below the upper mantle has a pressure between 24GPa and 130GPa; and this is a high pressure if compared to the pressure in the surface. Thus, the estimated pressure in this zone is 110GPa because this is the only number that is between the range of pressure in this zone, while others show a higher pressure that is not found in this layer.

1. What type of heat transfer causes the movement of tectonics plates.
creativ13 [48]
1) heat from radioactive decay in the core of the Earth heard the mantle.
2) Plates move averagely only a few cm a year, this has been happening ever since the planet formed and cooled to give a thick crust so this movement has added up over many years to move plates far from where they started.
3) because the mantle is heated and is able to flow slowly, convection currents are set up which cause the plates on the crust to move.
