Answer:
A. The astenosphere is denser than the lithosphere
Explanation:
The theory of isostasy is a theory that suggest that the layers of Earth are arranged in accordance to their density. It is a theory that usually refers to the mantle and crust. The mantle (astenosphere) is denser than the crust (lithosphere), so the crust floats on top of it, depending on its density, with he continental crust being higher, while the oceanic crust being lower. The two forces that are responsible for this are the gravity and buoyancy.

Answer:</h3>
D. Plate tectonics
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
The reason why answer choice "D. Plate tectonics" would be the correct answer because this was the physical process that created most of earth's physical features such as mountains.
The physical processes that create most of earth's physical features including mountains are known as <u>plate tectonics</u>.
A lot of the mountains you see today are formed by plate tectonics. What this means is that the plates that are beneath the earth's surface "hit" or "smash" each other, which makes an impact above the earth's surface.
The tectonic plates could be hitting each other while the ground in the surface starts "shoving" together and getting taller, which results as mountains you see today.

First, there were two independent clinical psychologists who were present or on call 24 hours a day. They had the power to intervene and to remove anyone from the study if they thought they were in distress.
Second, we had paramedics and security guards on hand and ready to intervene at a moment’s notice if anything untoward happened in the study.
Third, the study was constantly monitored by members of a five-person independent ethics panel. This was chaired by a Member of Parliament and also included members of the Holocaust Educational Trust, the Howard League for Penal Reform, the BBC’s Independent Editorial Policy Unit and a senior academic psychologist. This committee had the power to change the way the study as a whole was run and to terminate it if they had ethical concerns.

<em>No life, If we lose the biodiversity</em>
Answer:
1.- b. when the Moon is at right angles to the direction of the Sun.
2.-b. when the Moon is directly opposite the position of the Sun.
3.-b. when the Moon is closer to the Sun than the Earth is.
Explanation:
- The First Quarter Moon is when we can see exactly half of the Moon's surface illuminated. If it is the left or right half, it depends on where you are on Earth. If we observe the diagram I added we can see than <em>the moon is at right angles to the direction of the Sun</em> when it's in this phase.
- Full Moon happens when<em> the Moon is on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun</em>, this makes the bright side of the Moon face the Earth. This is also observable in the diagram.
- The New Moon always occurs when <em>the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun, therefore it's closer to the Sun than the Earth</em>, the bright side of the Moon is facing away from the Earth. You can check this in the diagram as well.
I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
