Astudent places an open hardcover book face down on a table. slowly, he pushes the two halves of the book toward each other. which geologic process is he trying to model? a) mountain building b) sediment deposition c) sea floor spreading d) divergent plate boundaries

The answer is A, a mountain building.

The two faces of the book represent the tectonic plates
As he presses them towards each other he is modeling a convergent boundary, and mountains are an affect of convergent plates.

That would be a working theory.

Glucose, also called grape sugar, blood sugar or corn sugar, is among the simplest and one of the primary naturally occurring sugars. produced naturally by plants as the primary photosynthesis product, it is heavily used by living beings as a main energy source and is necessary for cellular respiration. chemically, it is a monosaccharide carbohydrate and serves as a building block for complex sugars like starch.
