The Ring of Fire is the result of tectonic plates, huge slabs of Earth's crust that fit together like pieces of a puzzle. The plates are constantly moving atop a layer of solid and molten rock called
the mantle. Sometimes these plates collide, move apart or slide next to each other.
How does the analogy to a puzzle help the reader to understand tectonic plates?
(A) It helps the reader to imagine how large and heavy they are.
(B) It helps the reader to consider their exact shapes and curves.
(C) It helps the reader to visualize how their edges meet and align.
(D) It helps the reader to understand that they can be lifted.

Based on the observations provided, what is the relationship of current diabetes medication use and the use of extract from ginko biloba? a) the anti-inflammatory properties of ginko biloba extract are beneficial in treating t2d separate from the benefits of other therapies. b) the overall abundance of ginko biloba makes this extract an attractive joint therapy for existing medications that are used to treat t2d. c) the side effects of t2d medications have resulted in the need for different therapies to treat t2d like the use of ginko biloba extract. d) clinical outcomes from the use of current t2d medications may be improved through the use of cost-effective ginko biloba extract treatment. e) previous studies with ginko biloba and current t2d medications do not support the use of these treatments as effective against t2d in patients.
