The correct answer is - D. volcanic eruptions.

In recent studies and research about the water on our planet and how it came to be, the scientists managed to find new evidence that suggest that not only the comets and asteroids contributed to the existence of water on our planet, but also the volcanoes.

The volcanoes are actually releasing into the atmosphere the material from the deeper part of the Earth, the mantle layer. The mantle layer, as it turns out, has water in its rocks, so through the volcanic eruptions, that were much more and much bigger in the distant past, that water got released into the atmosphere. From the atmosphere, that water was falling on the surface, thus contributing to the creation of the first oceans on Earth.

Which mountain’s name translates to shining mountain?
hoa [83]

Answer:

Kilimanjaro

Explanation:

The name of Africa's tallest peak (19,341 feet above sea level) comes from two local languages: Swahili and Chagga. When combined, the words translate to "Shining Mountain" or "White Mountain." Alternate names given to Kilimanjaro throughout history translate to "Mountain Where Birds Cannot Fly" and "Mountain of Silver Moons." The Chagga people believe that a spirit lives atop the peak and will cause sickness to some who climb. Anthropologists think this is likely their method for explaining altitude sickness, caused by attempting to climb Kilimanjaro too quickly.
