Answer:

The correct answer is D. The crust of the Earth is a solid outer layer, between 3 and 30 miles thick, and separated into plates.

Explanation:

The earth's crust is the outermost solid part of the Earth. It represents 1% of the planet's volume, composed of minerals that form rocks. It is discontinuous due to the fact that it has tectonic plates that are on continuous movement. It is very dynamic with great geological activity. It has an average thickness of between 5 and 33 km on average. The outermost part of the upper mantle is firmly linked to the cortex, forming a compact set called lithosphere.

It appears that religion has been around in one form or another for most of human history. Do you think it is getting stronger,
podryga [215]

I think this question is very dependent on who you ask personally I dont think its dying out but I definitely think it's less of a key aspect of society then it ever was. I think this because being apart of the the younger generation we have been taught to question everything, and religion doesn't always have the answers nor does it line up with alot of morals that people have.

i don't know this is just my opinion I hope it helps!!

Abyssal plains are large, flat features that cover about ________ of the planet.
spin [16.1K]

Abyssal plains are large, flat features that cover about one third of the planet.

<h3>What are Abyssal plains?</h3>
  • The broad, flat, sediment-covered regions of the deep ocean floor are known as abyssal plains.
  • They have a slope of less than one foot of height variation for every thousand feet of travel, making them the flattest, featureless places on Earth.
  • When tectonic plates separate, magma rises and forms new crust, filling the space that was left between the plates.
  • When sediments from the shoreline pass over the continental shelf, tumble down the continental slope, and deposit on top of the more recent oceanic crust, they create an abyssal plane.
