The correct is - (b) the African plate is spreading apart to form two separate plates.
The African tectonic plate, on of the biggest ones, but it will not be like for a long time in the future as the plate is separating into two parts. The eastern part of the plate is moving towards east, and it is moving away from the mainland Africa. Because of this movement, cracks have been forming all over the eastern side of Africa, thus the numerous faults. Over time, as the distance is increasing, the space in between will fill with ocean water, thus making a natural barrier between them, as well as setting the foundations for the creation of a new sea, or maybe even an ocean.

Answer:
The dark energy is one of the primary composition of the universe, which is not visible and are mysterious. as a very little is known about this energy. This dark energy makes up nearly 68% of the universe. It is often considered as a property of space. The presence of dark energy can be detected as it affects the expansion of the universe. The universe started to form right after the big bang explosion and since then the space is expanding in all direction. With this, the dark energy present in the universe also is expanding at a considerably faster rate in association with the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation. The measurements of the distance and their connection with the redshift provided an evidence that the universe has been expanding at a certain speed.
Answer:
All of the planets move around the Sun in a direct (eastward) direction, but three of them (Venus, Uranus and Pluto) rotate in a retrograde (westward) direction, and are said to have a retrograde rotation. Do not confuse revolution, or motion around an orbit, with rotation, or turning about an axis.
