Answer: b. The temperature at the Earth's center may almost equal the temperature of the Sun's surface.
Explanation:
The Earth's core is very very hot due to various factors such as heat from radioactive materials decaying and the heat the earth had when it was formed. It is estimated that the temperature here is around 5,200° C which means that it can melt even Tungsten.
This is almost equal to the surface temperature of the sun which is around 5,500° C.
Answer:
on land but close to oceans
Explanation:
Earthquakes occur as a result of collisions along oceanic-continental convergent boundaries.
Majority of the earthquakes occur alongside the Ring of Fire of the Pacific Ocean. The Ring of Fire is found in the basin which is a land area found close to the coastlines of the ocean. This validates its occurrence on land but close to the oceans.

Answer:
The elastic-rebound theory explain the occurrence of earthquakes in b. When bending rocks fail, stress energy is released in the form of earthquakes.
Explanation:
The energy released as earthquakes result from when bending rocks fail and there is a rupture from the fault line. Because earthquakes are sudden movements from ruptures, the answer a is not correct. c. is also not correct because it is not the surrounding crust that vibrates but the crust is divided between two moving plates. d is also not correct because the opposite rocks are under sheer stress and the energy released is a stress energy, not a tension energy.
