Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

D is the only one that makes sense. friction isn't possible as The entire planet doesn't collide with anything, this it can't cause friction. And heavy elements aren't guaranteed to let off heat.

Unless this question is talking about the earth's core. if it talks about the earth's core, then it would be A, B and C.

I hope this clarifies it. Good luck.
