Question

many scientists dont believe that venus is currently volcanically active. they argue that the planets extreme atmospheric pressure makes such activity very unlikely. also, they believe that the channels in the planets surface, which are signs of lava flow from volcanic activity, were created by ancient eruptions as opposed to current eruptions. still, planetary geologist james head claims that venus may be experiencing ongoing volcanic activity. what finding, if true, would most directly support heads claim? choose 1 answer: a remote sensing data reveals that venuss atmospheric conditions, particularly its pressure and temperature, have changed very little over the last several decades. b high - resolution radar images from a recent nasa mission reveal new channels on venuss surface that were absent in previous surveys.

Explanation:

Head claims Venus may have ongoing volcanic activity. New channels on Venus's surface that were not present before could be signs of recent lava flow from current eruptions, directly supporting his claim. Option A about stable atmospheric conditions has no direct relation to current volcanic activity.

Answer:

B. High - resolution radar images from a recent NASA mission reveal new channels on Venus's surface that were absent in previous surveys.
