Respuesta :

1. The plates in the planet’s surface move because of intense heat in the Earth’s core, that causes molten rock in the mantle layer to move.

2. This one is simple: The gravity and the rotation of the planet causes the plates to shift and move.

A. Slab pull and crust conversion

B. Plate movement and convection currents

C. Connection and convection

D. Ridge push and slab pull

Correct answer choice is:

D. Ridge push and slab pull

Explanation:

Ridge Push: The process that occurs when magma arises at a mid-ocean ridge and drives oceanic plates in two separate ways apart from the ridge.

Slab pull: The process that occurs if a thick oceanic plate settles underneath a more resilient plate with a subduction zone, drawing the excess of the plate that pursues following it.
