Answer:

intrusive igneous rock

Explanation:

A rock that lies perpendicular to the surrounding horizontal strata means that it is lying at a 90 degree angle compared to the surrounding horizontal layers. This type of positioning of the rock layer suggests that it is a younger rock layer which intruded the preexisting rock layers. Such rocks occur because of volcanic activity, when the magma manages to penetrate through the softer rock strata and cut through it, thus disturb it and break its uniformity.

I think the answer is D, the radiative zone because, energy generated by nuclear fusion in the core moves outward as electromagnetic radiation. in other words, Energy is in the core but it takes radioactive waves to make it reach earth.

I don't think it's A, B C, because,

the corona has to do with the light of the sun

gamma zone is an example of radiation

the core is the base of the energy, where it's all stored

radiative zone makes it reach earth

That would be the choice I would choose. I hope this helps you.
