Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

The local winds are generally described as those that blow for a relatively shorter distance. These wind can blow in any particular direction and are not affected by the earth's rotation. This includes the land breeze and sea breeze.

On the other hand, the global winds are usually defined as those that blow over a large geographical area and are commonly affected by the earth's rotation, where the Coriolis force pushes the wind to move in the clockwise and anticlockwise direction in the northern and the southern hemisphere respectively.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

The force that drives earthquake activity is _____. magnetic force kinetic energy potential energy plate tectonics
larisa86 [58]
<span>The correct answer is plate tectonics. The outermost shell of Earth, called the lithosphere, is partitioned into different tectonic plates (7 or 8 major ones). When a plate breaks along what are called faults, there is a release of energy, which causes seismic waves (the ground shaking). This shaking then causes several plates to rub against each other, and when they break, the earthquake results.</span>
