-
A.
Mantle
Mantle is a surname most famously associated with Mickey Mantle, the legendary American baseball player.
-
B.
Mantle
Mantle is a low-level graphics API developed by AMD to provide high-performance, low-overhead access to GPUs, and it served as a precursor and influence to modern APIs like Vulkan and DirectX 12.
-
C.
Earth's crust
Earth's crust is the planet's thin, outermost solid layer composed of continental and oceanic plates that forms the surface on which we live and where geological processes like mountain building and volcanism occur.
-
D.
Earth lithosphere
The Earth lithosphere is the planet’s rigid outer shell, comprising the crust and uppermost mantle broken into tectonic plates that move and interact to shape Earth’s surface.
-
E.
Gutenberg discontinuity
The Gutenberg discontinuity is the seismic boundary within the Earth that marks the transition between the solid mantle and the liquid outer core.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
