Answer:
b. Antarctica's ice
Explanation:
Earth is flatter at the South Pole than the North Pole because of the weight of the Antarctica's ice.
The Antarctica ice cap is the largest single mass of ice on earth. It covers almost 14 million square kilometers and it weighs 26,500,000 Gigatons.
As a result of this heavy weight, it compresses the South Pole of the earth causing the earth to be flatter at the South Pole.
This gives the Earth its slight pear shape.

Answer:
245 feet per mile
Explanation:
The gradient is the same as the slope (that is the rate of change). The gradient of a volcano tells how steep the volcano is. It is the ratio of the change in the height to the change in horizontal distance. The gradient is given by the formula:
Gradient = change in vertical distance or height / change in horizontal distance. Hence:
Gradient = (5340 feet - 4850 feet) / 2 miles
Gradient = 245 feet per mile
