Answer:
The correct option is: <u>d. Volatiles released from minerals in the subducting plate lower the melting temperature of hot mantle rocks above them.</u>
Explanation:
<u>Magma </u>is the hot molten or semi-molten natural liquid, present under the surface of the Earth.
The subducting basalt and sediment contains a large amount of surface water and also in the form of <u>hydrated minerals</u> and <u>volatiles.</u>
The subduction of the plate deep into the earth results in greater pressures and temperatures. This causes the slab to release the water present into the overlying mantle wedge. This release of water, lowers the<u> melting temperature of the mantle rock</u> such that it melts. This results in t<u>he generation of magma.</u>

3. Supernova
4 helium
5 blackbody
6 once a massive star explodes as a supernova gravity compresses the remaining material into either a neutron star or a black hole. If the mass of the star is larger then gravity will be stronger, and the star is more likely to form a black hole
Explanation:
Answer: The biogeographic Amazon ranges from 7.76-8.24 million sq km (3-3.2 million sq mi), of which just over 80 percent is forested. For comparison, the land area of the United States (including Alaska and Hawaii) is 9,629,091 square kilometers (3,717,811 sq km). Nearly two-thirds of the Amazon lies in Brazil.
Explanation:
The slope formula is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. So, the answer to this question would be -3.
