a. Continental drift, volcanism and earthquakes near plate borders, folded mountain chains, rift valleys, magnetic patterns of basalt at midocean rises. b. Bow shocks and radiation belts, erosion on Earth’s surface, heat coming from Earth’s interior, abundance of oxygen and nitrogen in the atmosphere. c. Continental drift, volcanism and earthquakes near plate borders, heat coming from Earth’s interior, abundance of oxygen and nitrogen in the atmosphere. d. Bow shocks and radiation belts, erosion on Earth’s surface, folded mountain chains, magnetic patterns of basalt at midocean rises.
