Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The two engines that drive Earth are the solar energy from the sun's radiation and the internal heat generated from radioactive decay. These two engines power the processes that shape the planet, such as plate tectonics, the water cycle, and climate patterns. Regional, expanding, condensing, surficial, buried, and exposed are not accurate descriptions of Earth's engines.
