Thermal energy is added to ice and it begins to melt while remaining at the same temperature. Which changes happen to the molecules of water? (1 point)
The molecules will have more potential energy because of their freedom to move
The molecules will have a greater average kinetic energy because of their freedom to move.
The molecules will have less potential energy because of their freedom to move.
The molecules will have a less average kinetic energy because of their movement.

Which of these best describes the scientific process

Which part of earth’s surface receives the most direct rays from the sun? a) equator b) ocean c) poles d) mountains

Rocks, as they are compressed, begin forming mountains above the earth's surface when two continental plates converge. the continental crust increases in depth as the mountains grow above. the himalayan mountains formed at a convergent plate boundary in this manner. the rocks are smashed together causing them to due to the intense heat and pressure from the colliding plates and eventually forming rock. a) melt; igneous b) layer; sedimentary c) recrystallize; metamorphic d) melt into the earth's interior; metamorphic
