Answer:

it is the crust, and everything grows on it. they move around constantly at an incredibly slow pace, and float in the mantle. the mantle causes them to move around sometimes to cause earthquakes, by pulling them apart or pushing them together to make canyons and mountains respectively.

The lithosphere,which is the rigid outermost shell of the planet(the crust,and upper mantle),is broken into tectonic plates.The earth's lithosphere is composed of seven or eight major plates(depending on how they are defined)and many minor plates.In this way,the total surface of the lithosphere remain,the same.

The numbers listed represent the number of electrons in the first, second, and third energy levels, respectively. On this basis,
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

This is because one of its orbital shells is not filled – the one with 1 electron. This atom will, therefore, want to lose this electron – it takes less energy to do this than gain 7 electrons -- to achieve stable electron configuration. This makes this atom very reactive in a chemical reaction.  Usually orbital shells of atoms begin with an S orbital shell that is filled with 2 electrons then P (x,y,z) orbital shells filled with 6 electrons total. There are also higher energy f and d orbitals that each take a maximum 10 and 14 electrons respectively. An atom is stable if its orbitals are fully filled.
