The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "2.) Plate tectonics, plate boundaries ." Plate tectonics cause earthquakes and volcanic activity at plate boundaries.
Here are the following choices:
1.) Fault lines, laccoliths
2.) Plate tectonics, plate boundaries
3.) Plate tectonics, the Ring of Fire
4.) Heat from Earth's mantle, fault lines
The correct answer is -175 million years ago.
Pangaea was a supercontinent which was consisted of all the continental masses we know nowadays, just they were all merged into one very large land mass. This supercontinent started to form from the land masses that existed prior to it, and because of the tectonic activity they merged roughly around 335 million years ago. The continent existed during the Paleozoic era, as well as the early Mesozoic era.
With the breaking up of this continent because of the tectonic activity, it split initially into two large continents, Laurasia on the north, and Gondwanaland on the south. With the later break up, Laurasia split into Eurasia and North America, while Gondwanaland split into South America, India (which later moved towards Eurasia and merged with it), Antarctica, and Australia. The formation of the modern day continents also resulted in the formation of multiple oceans instead of one.
The most appropriate answer would be magma. Lava is a magma that reaches the Earth's surface, which is technically it is also a magma, and magma is located below the Earth's surface.
Lava at Earth's surface or magma below Earth's surface cools and harden to form mineral crystals.

Answer:
The true statement is - Sympatric speciation only occurs in areas where there is local variation in environmental resources
Explanation:
- Sympatric speciation means the evolution of new species from an ancestor species which are occupying in the same area and no geographical barrier takes place.
- Overlapping of ranges takes place to the organism and old and new species are living i the same geographical region.
- A dam diving a fish population could lead to allopatric speciation where geographical barrier causes formation of new species which are completely different from their ancestor species.
