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.

True or false, most lakes grow larger over time due to erosion?
ipn [44]

Answer: False

A lake is a water body that is surrounded by land. The water in the lake comes from melting glaciers, rain, groundwater, rivers. Lake formation also occurs when a water body is restricted to it's natural flow. Erosion due to wind  and water will limit the life of lake. As, soil removed during landslides or mudslides from hills or mountains get settled as debris at the bottom of lake will cause water pollution. Also, soil coming from agricultural field through water will carry in it fertilizers ,which will promote excessive plant and algal growth in lakes therefore, oxygen content of lake water will decrease which lead to death of animals residing in lake hence, will ultimately lead to water pollution ,which will be responsible for limiting the life of lake.
