What causes geologic events such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and the creation of mountains?

A. position of the planets

B. atmospheric pressure

C. ocean tides

D. lithospheric plate movement

Answer: D. lithospheric plate movement

Explanation:

The lithosphere is the layer at the Earth's surface and is formed by tectonic plates. Prompted by deep thermal pressure, the lithospheric plates continually move, and resulting fractures of rock can create a release of energy as seismic waves, meaning earthquakes.

Mountains are often formed by the collision of two continental plates, through tectonic and volcanic activity.

The Society of Jesus was founded by Saint Ignatius of Loyola in the Counter-Reformation in the year 1534. He, together with a group of students from the University of Paris, made vows of obedience to the doctrine of the Catholic Church and was recognized by papal bull in 1540.

They soon spread to Portugal, having been requested by D. J. III as missionaries, and acquired great influence in the social environment, between the 16th and 17th centuries.
