It is B, <span>In fact, water will sink as it cools until a certain point. If I recall correctly this is around 39 F. As the temp gets lower than that water actually begins to expand and becomes less dense. This is why ice floats, which we should all be thankful for. If ice didn't float than all water on earth would likely freeze solid and life would have probably never evolved past small single celled things.</span>

Answer:
Convergent and divergent plate boundaries
Explanation:
In a convergent plate boundary, two plates move towards each other. Due to the impact, the heavier tectonic plate subducts beneath the lighter plate. This results in the formation of a subduction zone, and there forms a trench above this zone. The rocks at greater depths, melts and mixes up with the magma and eventually rises upward, towards the surface in the over-riding plate, giving rise to the formation of volcanoes and volcanic arcs.
In a divergent plate boundary, two plates move away from one another. Due to this opposite motion of plates, there occur cracks on the seafloor and land areas, from where the magma comes out. With continuous spreading, there forms a ridge, which is commonly known as the mid-oceanic ridge. This type of plate boundary is responsible for the formation and expansion of the ocean basin. For example, the mid-Atlantic ridge.
The tree largest religions in Western Europe are the Christianity, Islam, and Judaism.
Depending on the county in Western Europe, there are differences in the type of Christianity type practiced, with the Catholicism and Protestantism being the most dominant ones. The Islam is the second largest religion, relatively new in this part of the continent and also a relatively quick growing one. The Judaism is the third largest religion in this part of Europe, but it has much less followers than the top two. The atheism is worth mentioning, despite not being a religion but the opposite of it, as the non-religious population in Western Europe is actually the second largest one, in front of the Islam and Judaism.
The culture of this region has largely been shaped and set on the foundations of the Christianity, mostly the Catholicism, with later diverging fraction of it. The Church has played a big role in the societies, politics, economy of this region for almost two millenniums, so it is carved in the cultural aspects of the nations living there.

Timbuktu

In the first half of the 15th century, the Tuareg tribes took control of the city for a short period until the expanding Songhai Empire absorbed the city in 1468. A Moroccan army defeated the Songhai in 1591 and made Timbuktu, rather than Gao, their capital.
