The Most Likely Explanation for How Highly Fluidized Rock Flows

The most likely explanation for how highly fluidized rock flows occur is that ________________.

A) the jostling of fragments in the flowing mass provides energy that propagates as trapped sound waves and supports the particles,thus fluidizing the mass (acoustic fluidization)
B) water lubricates the material,allowing it to flow (hydro fluidization)
C) steam lubricates the material,allowing it to flow (aqueous fluidization)
D) the flowing mass rides on a cushion of compressed air (jetting)
E) heat generated by friction melts material within the mass,allowing it to flow (thermal fluidization)
