what were the names of the two fossils that helped scientists conclude that continental drift actually happens
Answers
Answer:
Glossopteris and Mesosaurus are the two fossils that were initially used to support the continental drift theory.
Explanation:
The continental drift theory, now widely accepted, had a lot of troubles to breakthrough at the beginning. The majority of the scientists found such a proposal preposterous, so the scientists that were pushing through this theory had to come up with very numerous and very hard evidence. One of the pieces of evidence were the fossils.
The two fossils that were initially used to support this theory were the Glossopteris and Mesosaurus. Both of these fossils were found in multiple continents that are now separated by ocean waters and are very far away from each other, and it is pretty much impossible that an organism is totally the same at two different locations, or to remain in the same form with the same characteristics in different environments. Glossopteris is actually a species of seed fern that was widely spread, while Mesosaurus is a freshwater crocodile-like reptilian.

1. What is your initial thought/reaction to the conditions in the refugee camp and life in Kenya for the Lost Boys? In your perspective is East Africa a nice place? Why
Answers
Answer:
1 I felt pity for the children and wondered what a distressing life it must have been for them to leave their warring country and trek to other neighbouring countries just to receive shelter. They also had to live with rationed necessities in the refugee camps which were not sufficient.
2. East Africa is not a nice place.
3. What makes a place nice is majorly the people in it. East Africa is plagued by incessant wars and that does not make it a nice place.
Explanation:
The Lost Boys is a term given by the refugee staff to displaced children who left Sudan to seek shelter in neighbouring countries. The conditions in the camps were not ideal for life because they were not allowed to leave the camps, their food and water were rationed, and they were constantly plagued with news of their loved ones who had died.
All of these events do not paint a good picture of East Africa, so I do not think that it is a nice place.

The theory of plate tectonics states that the Earth's crust is composed of many plates that move gradually across the
Earth's surface.
Please select the best answer from the choices provided.
True or false
Answers
Answer:
True
Explanation:
The theory of plate tectonics was borne out of the theories of seafloor spreading and continental drift. This encompassing theory provided a succinct explanation for why plates moves and the mechanisms that drives them.
According to the theory of plate tectonics, the earth is broken into series of slabs. These slabs are called the lithosphere. The lithosphere is made up of part of the crust and upper mantle. This lithosphere gently moves over the weak asthenosphere below. The asthenosphere moves under influence of mantle convection.Solve for x -5x -3<2x -18

Pasha's pen pal Diya wants to move from India to a warm climate in Georgia.
She is a marine biologist who studies sea turtles. She wants to move to a
region in Georgia where she can continue working with sea animals and take
up the hobby of peanut farming. What region in Georgia should Pasha
recommend to Diya?
A. Peidmont
B. Coastal Plains
C. Blue Ridge
D. Appalachian Plateau
Answers
Answer:
B. Coastal Plains
Explanation:
Among the choices mentioned, it is only the "Coastal Plains" that can satisfy Diya's desires of continuing to work with sea animals and taking up the hobby of peanut farming.
Georgia's Coastal Plain is located near the ocean, thus different kinds of marine life are easily accessible for Diya's study. Surely, sea turtles are part of it. The Coastal Plains' inner area is great for farming and planting different crops (including peanuts). So, this will satisfy Diya's hobby of peanut farming.
What is the size of Europe's population
relative to its size as a continent?
Answers
Answer:
The map does not cover the whole of Europe, because the continent has a population of 743 million people, compared to the US population of just 319 million people. In terms of size the two are almost even, with Europe only slightly bigger than the US (10.2 million sq km vs 9.8 million sq km) but this includes large parts of Russia.
Explanation:
Hi friend! Hope this helps!
The continent's estimated 2016 population is over 738 million. Europe is the second-smallest continent by surface area and covers 10.18 million square kilometers (3.93 million square miles), or 2% of the Earth's surface and 6.8% of the world's land area. There are approximately 50 countries in Europe.

Introduction of irrigation
Answers

Correct answer is Construction of railroads
Explanation:
Construction of railroads is the correct answer as many historians have concluded that railroads did the most to the development of United States. Without them it is a question how the States would develop.
First option is not correct as it is connected more with the development of southern states.
Second option is not correct as tractor was introduced later.
Introduction of irrigation is not correct as irrigation was developed much earlier and didn't affect development of West that much.

How many degrees does the sun appear to travel in an hour?
Answers
Answer:15 degrees
Explanation:
360 degrees/24hr = 15 degrees per hour.
Answer:
Using approximate measurememts, the earth's equatorial circumference is 24,000 miles and the earth rotates once in 24 hours so the speed of rotation at the equator is
24,000 mi./24 hours = 1,000 mi/hr.
But we can also measure the angular speed of rotation.
360 degrees/24 hr = 15 degrees per hour.
(The angle subtended by the sun is the angle from one edge of the sun to the opposite edge)
(The sun is about the same angular size as a pea held at arms length.) (The angular size of the moon)
1/2 degree/15 degrees/hr = 1/30 hr = 2 minutes.
So when the bottom of the sun touches the horizon as it sets near the equator it will vanish in 2 minutes.
