Answer:
The earth’s crust is broken into separate pieces called tectonic plates (Fig. 7.14). Recall that the crust is the solid, rocky, outer shell of the planet. It is composed of two distinctly different types of material: the less-dense continental crust and the more-dense oceanic crust. Both types of crust rest atop solid, upper mantle material. The upper mantle, in turn, floats on a denser layer of lower mantle that is much like thick molten tar.
Each tectonic plate is free-floating and can move independently. Earthquakes and volcanoes are the direct result of the movement of tectonic plates at fault lines. The term fault is used to describe the boundary between tectonic plates. Most of the earthquakes and volcanoes around the Pacific ocean basin—a pattern known as the “ring of fire”—are due to the movement of tectonic plates in this region. Other observable results of short-term plate movement include the gradual widening of the Great Rift lakes in eastern Africa and the rising of the Himalayan Mountain range. The motion of plates can be described in four general patterns:

Collision: when two continental plates are shoved together
Subduction: when one plate plunges beneath another (Fig. 7.15)
Spreading: when two plates are pushed apart (Fig. 7.15)
Transform faulting: when two plates slide past each othe
Explanation:
D. Protein
Carbohydrates are made from three elements known as Carbon, water, and oxygen.
DNA is made up of phosphate sugar groups for the helix and nitrogenous bases for the inside.l
Lipids also are only made form carbon, water, and oxygen but in a different ratio.
An increase in sudoriferous gland activity is called hyperthyroidism.
It happens when these sudoriferous glands, which are also known as sweat glands, affect the thyroid gland in such a way that it starts producing excessive amounts of thyroid hormone, which leads to this condition. In normal amounts, thyroid hormone regulates metabolism, but if there is too much of it, it can cause problems.
Soil creation is a result of carrying out successions. Succession is the process in which land that is inhabitable by organisms is reclaimed and made fertile. This is done using pioneer species, which do not require soil to grow. After a while, these species are removed and a secondary succession is carried out. After this process, soil is created and the land becomes fertile.
Radiation
The fire radiates heat and the human body absorbs said heat.
