The scientific theory of plate tectonics states that the Earth's crust is composed of many plates, or slabs of rock. Interactions of these plates have created different landforms, or geologic features. Which of the following statements provides evidence for this theory?
A. A large earthquake off the coast of Japan induces a wave that is over twenty feet high.
B. An iceberg buckles the hull of the Titanic and allows water to enter between the steel plates.
C. Fossilized marine creatures can be found at the top of the Himalayan Mountains.
D. The city of Pompeii is perfectly preserved under volcanic ash following the eruption of Mount Vesuvius.

Answer 1
