Which statement is true according to the theory of plate tectonics? Question 1 options:

a)Lithospheric plates are destroyed at the mid-ocean ridges.

b)Continents drift because they rest on lithospheric plates that move.

c)Lithospheric plates move because the inner core of the Earth is liquid.

d)Transform boundaries form when two lithospheric plates collide.

sediment layers stop spreading when they reach a barrier or they run out of sedimentary material. lateral spreading is the movement of gently to steeply sloping, saturated soil deposits caused by earthquake-induced liquefaction. i hope this . : )

the answer for this question on edg. is 8/5  

the answer would be the third option, "no, ariel should have added 9^2 and 12^2 and compared that to 15^2."

this is found through the pythagorean theorem, which is a^2 + b^2 = c^2.

this is the correct way of solving the problem:

9^2 + 12^2 = 15^2

81 + 144 = 225

225 = 225
