Each of the following applies to a certificate of deposit savings account EXCEPT: A. low interest rate B. time based account C. minimum opening balance D. penalty for early withdrawal Please select the best answer from the choices provided A B C D

B

Explanation:

time based account -An agreement between a bank and a person or institution, whereby the bank agrees to hold money and/or other assets on behalf of the other party. What the holder may do with those assets depends upon the nature of the account. In a checking account or a savings account, the bank holds money and pays the client a certain percentage in interest. This payment gives the bank the right to lend the money to other clients or invest it within the confines of law and banking regulations. However, the client has the right to withdraw the total amount of money on demand.

the earth’s crust is broken into separate pieces called tectonic plates (fig. 7.14). recall that the crust is the solid, rocky, outer shell of the planet. it is composed of two distinctly different types of material: the less-dense continental crust and the more-dense oceanic crust. both types of crust rest atop solid, upper mantle material. the upper mantle, in turn, floats on a denser layer of lower mantle that is much like thick molten tar.

each tectonic plate is free-floating and can move independently. earthquakes and volcanoes are the direct result of the movement of tectonic plates at fault lines. the term fault is used to describe the boundary between tectonic plates. most of the earthquakes and volcanoes around the pacific ocean basin—a pattern known as the “ring of fire”—are due to the movement of tectonic plates in this region. other observable results of short-term plate movement include the gradual widening of the great rift lakes in eastern africa and the rising of the himalayan mountain range. the motion of plates can be described in four general patterns:

collision: when two continental plates are shoved together

subduction: when one plate plunges beneath another (fig. 7.15)

spreading: when two plates are pushed apart (fig. 7.15)

transform faulting: when two plates slide past each other (fig. 7.15)
