The combination of all of the forces acting on object is net force.
Answer:
D, the lithosphere. (CRUST AND UPPER MANTLE)
Explanation:
A tectonic plate (also called lithospheric plate) is a massive, irregularly shaped slab of solid rock, generally composed of both continental and oceanic lithosphere. Plate size can vary greatly, from a few hundred to thousands of kilometers across; the Pacific and Antarctic Plates are among the largest. Plate thickness also varies greatly, ranging from less than 15 km for young oceanic lithosphere to about 200 km or more for ancient continental lithosphere (for example, the interior parts of North and South America).

In order to make things easier to describe and explain, let's call
the resistance of each bulb 'R', and the battery voltage 'V'.
a). In series, the total resistance is 3R.
In parallel, the total resistance is R/3.
Changing from series to parallel, the total resistance of the circuit
decreases to 1/9 of its original value.
b). In series, the total current is V / (3R) .
In parallel, the total current is 3V / R .
Changing from series to parallel, the total current in the circuit
increases to 9 times its original value.
c). In series, the power dissipated by the circuit is
(V) · V/3R = V² / 3R .
In parallel, the power dissipated by the circuit is
(V) · 3V/R = 3V² / R .
Changing from series to parallel, the power dissipated by
the circuit (also the power delivered by the battery) increases
to 9 times its original value.
The reasoning for this is false
