Explanation:

First Question (Tectonic Plate Movement)

Tectonic plate movement is driven by convection currents in the mantle. The Earth's mantle has semi - molten rock that moves in convection currents, which drag the tectonic plates above. The Earth's magnetic field is related to the core and not plate movement. The moon's gravitational pull causes tides, not plate movement. Solar radiation affects climate and weather, not plate movement.

The definition of sustainability is meeting the present needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. Maximizing profit from natural resources is unsustainable exploitation. Reducing all consumption to pre - industrial levels is not practical and not the core of sustainability. Creating artificial resources is not the primary focus of sustainability.

The ozone layer is located in the stratosphere. The troposphere is the lowest layer with weather. The mesosphere is above the stratosphere and the thermosphere is even higher. Ozone in the stratosphere absorbs UV radiation.

Answer:

C. Convection currents in the mantle
