hey can u help me in my hw Human activities also cause the earth quake explain and plz don't write the thing not related 2 the question.​

Earthquakes are usually caused when rock or plates underground suddenly breaks along a fault.

This sudden release of energy causes the seismic waves that make the ground shake.

When two blocks of rock or two plates are rubbing against each other, they stick a little and start building up pressure in the two plates. When the pressure inside the plates overcome their force of sticking and the plates break causing earthquake .

The right answer is the A. Take a stance on an issue.  

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that one of the meanings of contention is idea or opinion—it comes from the Latin contendĕre, which can be translated as to dispute. Therefore, persuasive speeches of contention are those in which the speakers give their opinion or pronounce themselves. There are other kinds of speeches specifically aimed at moving the audience to action, so option C is incorrect. Options B and C, on the other hand, are imprecise.
