The correct answer is - c. Hispania.

Hispania is just a latin term for the name Spain, though it has to be taken in notice that the Spanish people don't call the country Spain, but it is Espana in their own respective Spanish language, which is essentially the same, just that the English term is adjusted to the English language.

The name of the country before it was called Spain is:

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

In the past, Hispania was the name used to refer to the Iberian Peninsula. This name was given by the Phoenicians. In 19 BC, the territory of Hispania was successfully conquered by the Romans through the Punic war.

Roman power in the region of Hispania did not prevail for so long. Evidently, in 711, the Muslim nation succeeded in taking control of Hispania and called it the Al Andalus region.

When the Muslim and Christian kingdoms were still in power, the name Hispania was used to call the Iberian region that controlled by Muslims only. But at the end of the 12th century, the Muslims kingdom Granada and the Christian kingdom such as, Leon, Castile, Navarra, Aragon, and Portugal joined in the same region called Spain (España). Nowadays, we know the Iberian region consists of two countries, Spain and Portugal.

Examine the five words and/or phrases and determine the relationship among the majority of words/phrases. Choose the one option

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Abyssal Hill

Explanation:

The given words/phrases are directly related to the seafloor spreading process.

In the case of divergent plate motion, plates move in the opposite direction. Due to this, the thickness of the lithosphere decrease and with the increasing time, it results in the eruption of magma at the seafloor. In the ocean basin, these magmas erupt along the mid-oceanic ridge, and in the continental areas, it leads to the formation of a rift and later forms a rift valley.

Some of the segments of the mid-oceanic ridge in the oceans are quite gentle with no roughness along the slope and some segments are steep and rough. It occurs because of the differences in the spreading rate, and this is commonly known as oceanic rise. The rocks that are formed at the mid-oceanic ridge are the youngest of all other rocks.

The odd one here is the abyssal hill, which is formed generally at the seafloor. When the areas at the abyssal plains are comprised of large deposits of sediments forming a hill, then it is called an abyssal hill. It is not related to the seafloor spreading. It is simply a feature of the ocean floor.
