The continents do not float on a sea of molten rock. The continental and oceanic crusts sit on a thick layer of solid rock known as the mantle. While there is a layer of liquid rock in the earth known as the outer core, this layer is about 3000 km below earth's surface and is separated from the surface by the thick solid mantle. The tectonic plates do not slowly drift over time because they are floating on a layer of liquid rock. They drift because they are sitting on a layer of solid rock (the upper mantle or "asthenosphere") that is weak and ductile enough that it can flow very slowly under heat convection, somewhat like a liquid.

that sink into brown cloth.
2. Lines 46 and 47

3. Lines 51 and 52

Explanation:
In lines 16, 17, and 18 metaphor was used because the needle was indirectly compared to a worm.
In lines 46 and 47, personification was used because the attribute of a living thing - to burn, was assigned to the eyes. Normally, the eyes do not burn. But in this instance, burning was used figuratively.
In lines 51 and 52, simile was used because mother was compared to a bark that has become gaunt. The connector 'like' was used for this direct comparison.

Answer:
They serve as our groups of reference.
Explanation:
Groups of reference can be understood in social and group psychology as the groups to which we identify with. These groups help us as individuals to build our own identity by providing us with values, common goals, principles, and collective characteristics.
The groups that we are part of shape who we are and also shapes the social perception (Either negative, positive or neutral) that other people have about us as individuals.
<u>Groups, such as families, schools, neighborhoods, and nations affect how others think about us because they give us identity when we are part of a group we acquire the characteristics of said group and that helps people create their opinions about us as individuals.</u>
