The answer is B. The theory of isostatic equilibrium is used to explain the vertical height of a particular point on the earth such as the Himalayas. This theory is very similar to the principle of buoyancy. The mantle, in this case, is the liquid being displaced by the crust above. To accommodate great pressures such as those exerted by the Himalayas, the mantle distributes the force by height adjustments.
<span>Cinder cones are
known as Scoria
cones. These are cones made of basalt at low density. Gas bubble, making up the
lave are energetic in nature, because they keep on expanding in all directions,
they will go all out to the only open are of a volcano, the vent, in an upward
direction. These fragments are called pyroclasts. When thrown up high, because
pf pressure, these fragments fail to stick together and cool down before they
reach the land making scoria cones.</span>

The oceanic crust is more dense compared to the continental crust.
The coriolis effect influences wind by deflecting its path to the right in the Northern Hemisphere. The sequence of the weather satellite images show that the actual wind direction is from the southwest.
