Answer:
b. each has its own geologic history.
Explanation:
An ocean is a body of salt water which covers approximately 70% of the Earth's surface. About 97% of the Earth's water is comprised of ocean and as such it is the most prominent and defined feature of the Earth. There are basically four (4) categories of an oceanic basin and these are;
<em>1. The Pacific ocean. </em>
<em>2. The Artic ocean. </em>
<em>3. The Atlantic ocean. </em>
<em>4. The Indian ocean. </em>
On the other hand, Continents can be defined as very large landmasses or area of land typically surrounded and separated by water. It is divided into seven (7) main categories and these are;
<em>1. Africa. </em>
<em>2. Asia. </em>
<em>3. Antarctica. </em>
<em>4. South America. </em>
<em>5. North America. </em>
<em>6. Australia. </em>
<em>7. Europe. </em>
Continents differ in appearance from ocean basins because each has its own geologic history. Thus, a continent is less denser and comprise of a thick granite material while an oceanic basin is dense and an older basalt.
When a continent is compared with an oceanic crust, it was discovered that the continental crust is lighter in colour than the oceanic crust.

In general, a storm has three stages. The first is development, the second is the mature stage and the third is the dissipative stage. The most striking difference in the stages is the change in currents. The beginning of the storm occurs with an ascending current, which causes the cloud to grow vertically. Then, with the precipitation, downward currents begin, through the friction caused by the rain. During this period the two currents, ascending and descending, reach their peak, gradually dispersing in the final phase.

Answer:
Answer is option C (protoplanets).
Explanation:
During the formation of the solar system, a giant cloud of molecular dust collapsed to form stars, which were surrounded by a cloud of gas. The dust and other particles inside the cloud collide and merge together into larger mass through the gravitational and other forces. They continue to grow and become large enough to gravitationally attract other small celestial objects to form protoplanets. Some of the protoplanets continue their growth through the process called accretion and form planets.
Planetesimals - The small celestial objects formed during the early stages of the creation of the solar system.
Protoplanets - The objects formed when planetesimals became large enough to attract their neighboring celestial bodies through the force of gravity and grow by the process known as accretion, where they collide and merge together into larger bodies.
Extrasolar planets - The planets found outside our solar system (orbit another star, not the Sun).
