Which outcome is caused by crustal rebound near faults?

A)Post-glacial isostatic adjustment
B)Increased mantle plume volcanism
C)Decreased thermal gradient strength
D)Intensified oceanic ridge spreading

💡 Explanation

Crustal rebound initiates isostatic adjustment because ice sheet unloading decreases lithospheric pressure locally. This uplift elevates continental land masses rather than augmenting volcanic activity; therefore, A is the correct answer.
