From the box plot shown we see that:
The median of Liam's data is 10, the range is (20-4)=16
The median of Sumat's data is 14, the range is (22-3)=19
The correct answer will therefore be:
C. The range of Liam's data set is 16

Answer:
elastic deformation: the rock returns to its original shape when the stress is removed.
plastic deformation: the rock does not return to its original shape when the stress is removed.
fracture: the rock breaks.
Explanation:
Stress is the force applied to an object. In geology, stress is the force per unit area that is placed on a rock. Four types of stresses act on materials.
A deeply buried rock is pushed down by the weight of all the material above it. Since the rock cannot move, it cannot deform. This is called confining stress.
Compression squeezes rocks together, causing rocks to fold or fracture (break) (figure 1). Compression is the most common stress at convergent plate boundaries.
Rocks that are pulled apart are under tension. Rocks under tension lengthen or break apart. Tension is the major type of stress at divergent plate boundaries.
When forces are parallel but moving in opposite directions, the stress is called shear (figure 2). Shear stress is the most common stress at transform plate boundaries.
Stress In Earth’s Crust
Enormous slabs of lithosphere move unevenly over the planet’s spherical surface, resulting in earthquakes. This chapter deals with two types of geological activity that occur because of plate tectonics: mountain building and earthquakes. First, we will consider what can happen to rocks when they are exposed to stress.
The answer is; plankton
The major group of plankton that contribute to earth’ crude oil are phytoplanktons because of their great numbers – even though they are microscopic. They are the base of the food chains in the oceans because they are the main primary producers. Examples of phytoplankton are the dinoflagellates, cyanobacteria, diatoms and blue-green algae.
