The area known as the "Ring of Fire" earn its nickname as it is associated with volcanic and tectonic activity.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation: </u>

Volcanic action happens at two kinds of plate limits: subduction zones and mid-sea edges. At mid-sea edges, basaltic emissions cause new ocean bottom hull. Whereas, tectonic activity (quakes, volcanoes, and mountain working all in all) is basic at plate limits, where the edges of (at least two) plates are in contact along tremendous direct zones of blaming.

Plate tectonics is the investigation of these crustal sections, and how they interface at their edges. In general, the areas from Pacific Ocean  covers more than 90% of world’s earthquake and 75% of volcanoes.

This is termed as ‘Ring of Fire’ and countries like Pacific islands and Japan are at higher risks by earthquakes. The movement leads to epicenters of deep ocean ditches, volcanic eruptions and earthquakes along the walls where the plates meet, called fault lines.

Closely examine the Great Depression in 1929
Maslowich

Economic euphoria in the United States began in the early 1920s, where large companies began to invest in bonds on the stock market. The economy showed an infinite sea of ​​possibilities. Exaggerated consumption, high profits and the whole culture of the American Way of Life. A whole culture built on the pillars of market and consumption.

However, from this growth was projected that crisis that is considered as the largest that Capitalism has ever faced. A systemic crisis, where the hitherto winning capitalist model decays. The economy that largely revolved around stock market speculation, and therefore artificial, thus found its limit and breaks at the time of the "New York Stock Exchange" on October 24, 1929.

The main factors leading to the crash were the result of the economic euphoria itself. The increase in consumption caused industries to increase their production as well, however at some point there was no longer a market for such a large production which caused countless industries to fail because they could not sell their productions.

Another factor of the great crisis was agricultural overproduction. The agricultural market as well as the industries, accompanying the growth of consumption began to produce more than the market could absorb. Mainly wheat production was affected by the downturn in the market.
