1. which observation supported wegener’s theory of continental drift?

different continents had different rock types.
identical fossils were found on continents that were far apart.
each continent had mountain ranges.
the earth’s rotation could provide enough force to move the continents apart.

. 2. which feature do you usually see when tectonic plates move apart? (
volcanoes
earthquakes
mountains
new ocean ridges and seafloor

3. what happens in a convection cell?
cold, dense material sinks while hot, less dense material rises.
cold, dense material moves horizontally, while hot, less dense material moves vertically.
hot, less dense material moves horizontally, while cold, dense material moves vertically.
hot, less dense material sinks while cold, dense material rises.

1- Option (B)

2- Option (D)

3- Option (A)

Explanation:

1) The continental drift theory was introduced by Alfred Wegener, which described the large scale movement of the continents over the vast ocean water body. He provided many evidences of which one is that the similar type of fossil assemblages were found in the distant continents.

2) In a divergent plate boundary, two plates move away from one another, and results in the formation of new oceanic crust, along the mid oceanic ridges and seafloor spreading takes place extensively.

3) In a convection cell, the hot and less dense materials rises up slowly, and as it rises upward it cools, and eventually sinks, giving rise to the formation of cells. For example, in the mantle region of the earth, the less dense magma rises upward, more dense magma sinks, forming convection cells.

Thus, the correct answers are given above.

answer: accepted answer: aquatic animals use the oxygen dissolved in water to carry out respiration. since the amount of dissolved oxygen in water is low as compared to the amount of oxygen in the air, therefore the rate of breathing in aquatic animals is much faster than it is in terrestrial animals.
