The answer is B) volcanic arc, island arc.

The first one would be island arc as subduction occurs beneath the continental crust. When it occurs, the compressional force placed upon the continential plate will cause the rock to bend and arc up form a series of volcanoes leading to the formation of volcanic arc.

The second one would be island arc as subduction occurs beneath the oceanic lithosphere. When subduction forced the crust to bend, rocks are compressed and arc up, forming a series of island, the formation of island arc then occurs.

C and D is incorrect as no transformation has take place.

Hope it helps!

Greenhouse gases keep the earth warm through a process called
Yakvenalex [24]

The correct answer is - Greenhouse effect.

The Greenhouse effect is a process in which certain type of gasses in the lower atmosphere manage to trap the heat that is radiated from the surface of the planet.

The gases that are considered to be greenhouse gases are able to perform such a thing, despite being relatively low in amount compared to other gases, because they have much more complex molecular structure.

The molecular structure of this gases enables them to trap the heat, or rather to not allow to leave the atmosphere and return it back toward the surface, thus having huge effect on the climate.

Greenhouse gases are the carbon dioxide, methane, water vapor, nitrous oxide.

The answer is D.

Well, I would say that nagging someone is always a bad idea, especially if your wife just went through something like childbirth recently. Ignoring her isn't going to improve his relationship at all either if anything, it will hurt it. Just accepting and doing nothing will not make the relationship any better either. So the answer is D. Talk to and spend more time with her.
