RECITATION

The outermost layer of the Earth

• core

• mantle

• crust

13. The glacial scratch is an indication that a massive glacier moves from one place to the other.

15. The discovery of coal in cold regions and glacial evidences in warm regions led Wegener to formulate his fourth evidence which is Fossil Correlation.

16. The convection current underneath the Earth's crust is due to the difference of its velocity.

17. The divergent boundary is also known as conservative boundary since it creates new crust.

19. The convection current underneath the Earth's crust is described to be like a asteroid belt.

20. Convergent boundary is where a lot of earthquakes occur due to its side to side movement.

Who is the German Scientist that came up with the theory of the Continental Drift? 

• Albert Einstein 
• Ms. Stukel 
• Galileo
• Alfred Wegener

Originally the Continental drift theory was not well received by other scientist.  Why? 

• There was a competing theory at the time that was more believable. 
• There was no data showing the continents ever moved. 
• The scientists did not know the force responsible for moving the continents. 
• The scientist presenting the data was unreliable.
