A) GPS monitoring and satellite imagery of crustal movements
Explanation:
The most recent evidence supporting the theory of plate tectonics is the use of GPS monitoring and satellite imagery of crustal movements.
GPS denotes Global Positioning Systems.
Satellite imagery is a recent advancement in the study of moving plates.
- The global positioning system uses the position of a system of satellites in space to delineate positions on earth.
- It works on the principles of triangulation and this helps to fix positions of objects on the earth surface.
- With this, the change in position of the plates can be recorded by known fixed positions of objects.
- Satellite imagery helps to map changes in terrain with time.
- Images can be correlated through time and the shift in terrains delineated.

Answer:
Explanation:
The question is not complete, the cmplete question is:
Identify one type of noncovalent bond present in each solid.
1) Table salt (NaCl) 2) Graphite (repeating)
a. hydrogen bonds
b. ionic interactions
c. van der Waals interactions
d. hydrophobic interactions
Answer:
1) Table salt
b. ionic interactions
Ionic bond are formed between atoms with incomplete outermost shell. Some atoms add electrons to their outermost shell to make the shell complete hence making it a negative ion while some atoms loses their electron to make the outermost shell complete becoming a positive ion. In NaCl, sodium (Na) has 1 electron in its outermost shell which it transfers to Cl which has 7 electrons in the outermost shell. Hence after the bonding the outermost shell of the atoms become complete.
2) Graphite
c. Van Der Waals interaction
Van der waal forces are weak interaction between molecules that exist between close atoms. Carbon atoms in graphite planes have covalent bond, these graphite planes are known as graphenes. Bonds between graphenes are very weak and are van der waals forces.
