Which statement is true about the process of accretion?
a-it causes fragments of crust to disconnect and drift away from continental landmasses.
b-it results in embedded volcanic island arcs and microcontinents being left behind.
c-it reduces continental landmasses while forming mountains along the edges of continents.
d-it enlarges continental landmasses and forms mountains along the edges of continents.

Option (D)

Explanation:

When continental plates collides with one another, it forms a sandwich pattern, in which the rocks undergoes compression. As a result of which, the landmass rises, forming huge mountain ranges. This mountains so formed are bigger in size as well as in area. This materials get accumulated due to the plate tectonic movement. For example, the Himalaya.

According to the process of accretion, the continental landmass also increases in area and size due to the addition of materials by the weathering and erosion of the nearby rocks by the agents such as wind, ice and water.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

an active site is a region that is present on an enzyme where the reactants or the substrate molecules we can say bind and experience a chemical reaction. the substrate is basically a reactant whose concentration is changing and that is converting into a product after binding at the active site of an enzyme

the "dirty dozen" chemicals banned in an international treaty are formally known as persistent organic pollutants, or pops. the united nations environment program provided this background on what they are and what they can do to humans and wildlife.
