D)Heat within Earth

Explanation:

The heat from within the earth is as a result of plate tectonics. Plates on the earth are driven by heat within the earth through convection currents.

Plate tectonics suggests that the earth are broken into slabs that moves on the weak and ductile material called asthenosphere.
Heat from within the earth causes the melting of asthenosphere.
The riding lithosphere which is cold will sink into the asthenoshpere.
Hot mantle materials will move to the surface thereby setting up a convection current.
Heat from within the earth rises to the surface due to plate movement.
