Can some explain Q3
D.suggested that geologists had inaccurately assumed that giant rock plates that meet at the San Andreas Fault generate heat through friction
What I see in the passage is
"The harder rocks push against each other, the hotter they become; in other words, pressure itself, not only the rocks’ properties, affects frictional heating. "
This effectively means that two factors contributed tofrictional heating
1) Rocks' properties
2) Pressure
How can option D be correct
