They provide evidence that movements of the crust are a result of slow moving currents in the mantle. Since earthquakes and volcanic eruptions are usually a result of stick-slip movements between 2 more plates and it is tension changes that are responsible for this sudden movement, the plates must be moving overtime or this tension would remain fairly constant.

storchak [24]

Answer: a. True

Explanation:

In the pursuit of acquiring more fresh water, fog harvesting was introduced. It is a way to capture fog which is water vapor that is condensed but close to the surface. Fog has the tendency of reverting to water's liquid form when it comes into contact with objects.

Collecting water from fog involves using a net where the water will collect and fall due to gravity into a conduit such as a trough or gutter that will then take it to a storage tank.

There are hundreds of major and sub-fields of science. Who decides which field of science is officially a sub-field of another f
Marrrta [24]

The subject of science is very broad. With that being said, I think there is no official regulatory board that decides the branches of science. Scientific developments are products of joined efforts of different scientists. These scientists could rebuke another's work provided there is evidence. As long as the theory is generally accepted by the scientists and no one rebukes it effectively, then it is a generally accepted fact and everyone adapts it.

Hence, the answer is B.
