What was an important effect of internal heat in Earth's evolution?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Volcanic activity was promoted

The governing concept is the role of internal heat in geological evolution. Heat left from Earth’s formation, radioactive decay, and gravitational compression kept parts of the interior hot and mobile. This energy promoted melting, convection, and volcanic activity. Volcanoes released lava and gases, including water vapour and carbon dioxide, helping shape the early crust, atmosphere, and hydrosphere. Therefore option A is correct. Internal heat did not make the atmosphere disappear instantly, so B is false. It also could not turn oceans into stone; that contradicts the existence of liquid water. Option D is wrong because internal heat is a geological process and does not cause life to become fully developed immediately. Its influence is indirect and operates over long periods.
