The correct answer is option C, Italy has experienced many earthquakes.

According to the theory of plate tectonics, Earth is an active planet. Its surface comprises various individual plates, which interact and move, continuously modifying and reshaping the outer layer of the Earth. Volcanoes and earthquakes both are the outcomes of the movement of tectonic plates.

Earthquakes take place on faults, strike-slip earthquakes take place on strike-slip faults, usual earthquakes take place on normal faults, and thrust earthquakes take place on reverse or thrust faults. When an earthquake takes place on one of these faults, the rock on one end of the fault slips in relation to the other.

Answer:

The main structural component of plant cell walls is cellulose  which is a type of carbohydrate made up of a long chain of glucose molecules (a polysaccharide).

Explanation:

The plant cell walls are composed of cellulose, which is a structural carbohydrate made up of a long chain of glucose molecules (β linked D-glucose units). It is a polysaccharide like starch, but the starch molecule is flexible and the cellulose molecule is rigid. Each of these polysaccharide chains is connected together by hydrogen bonds. Microfibrils are formed by arranging some of these polysaccharide chains in parallel arrays. Due to the presence of hydrogen bonds, the microfibrils are extremely tough and inflexible. This property of cellulose provides strength and rigidity to the plant cell walls.
