<u>Answer:</u>

<em>A. Mantle convection </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Ridges are formed over the divergent plate boundaries, it can be pushed by the mantle plume volcanism originated by the core mantle boundary at the Asthenosphere region over the divergent plate boundary. Seafloor spreading is the one of the evidences of plate tectonics theory. Subduction of the plate is the result of ridge push and slab pull, oceanic plate is less dense so its under beneath the high denser continental plate.

The equator runs north-south roughly through the middle of the continent of Africa. Answer
Bas_tet [7]
This is false, as the equator does not run north-south. The equators is the line that goes all around the planet in equal distance from the two poles: so it runs west-east.

It is true however that it runs roughly through the middle of the continent of Africa, but rather on the west-east axis.

The moon doesn't stay at the same distance from the earth why​
lora16 [44]
The migration of the Moon away from the Earth is mainly due to the action of the Earth's tides. The Moon is kept in orbit by the gravitational force that the Earth exerts on it, but the Moon also exerts a gravitational force on our planet and this causes the movement of the Earth's oceans to form a tidal bulge.
