Rocks form through a variety of processes. These processes require energy. Which statement best describes how the energy of Earth's interior contributes to the formation of rocks on its surface?
A.
The energy in the Earth's interior melts rock, creating magma which cools back into rock when it reaches the surface.
B.
The energy in the Earth's interior heats the ocean floor, crystallizing sand into rocks that are brought to shore by ocean waves.
C.
The energy in the Earth's interior rises to the surface and melts rocks on the surface, and then this liquid crystallizes back to solid rock when it cools.
D.
The energy in the Earth's interior produces rocks deep in the Earth, and these rocks are pushed up to the surface during volcanic eruptions.

Bisphenol a (often called bpa) is a chemical found in products that people use every day, from water bottles to food containers to children's toys. unfortunately, bpa leaches out of its many products and makes its way into our bodies. what are the health effects of bpa exposure? ongoing research is finding that elevated exposure to bpa can affect a wide variety of developmental and physiological processes, but one of the first studies of bpa's health effects came about because of a simple mistake in the lab. at a laboratory at case western reserve university in 1998, geneticist patricia hunt was making a routine check of her female lab mice. as she extracted and examined developing eggs from the ovaries, she began to wonder what had gone wrong. she noticed that many of the eggs showed problems with their chromosomes, and some had irregular amounts of genetic material, which can lead to miscarriages and birth defects in mammals. she learned that a lab assistant had mistakenly washed the plastic mouse cages and water bottles with a harsh soap, releasing bpa from the plastic. knowing that bpa is an endocrine disruptor, a chemical that can enter organisms and mimic hormones, hunt set out to discover whether it had adversely affected her mice.
