Answer:

the deep sea floor. Known as the oceanic crust.

Explanation:

The deep seafloor (the oceanic crust) is made almost entirely of basaltic rocks, with peridotite underneath in the mantle. Basalts are also erupted above the Earth's great subduction zones, either in volcanic island arcs or along the edges of continents.

Consider the energy diagram below. xn. mc012-1.jpg Which line indicates a higher reaction rate? A because it has a lower activat

Answer is: B because it has a lower activation energy.

For all chemical reaction some energy is required and that energy is called activation energy (energy that needs to be absorbed for a chemical reaction to start), activation energy for reaction B is lower that for reaction A.

Catalysis is the increase in the rate of a chemical reaction due to the participation of an additional substance called a catalyst.

Chemical reactions occur faster with a catalyst because they require less activation energy.
