Plate tectonics is the theory that explains how Earth's land masses are in constant motion. Before this theory was discovered, Alfred Wegener found out about the continental drift. Its the hypothesis of how the continents drifted over the ocean bed.

The continental drift led to the theory of plate tectonics. The main reason that led to the movement of the continents is because of the movement of the plates in the lithosphere.

Plates are massive, irregularly shaped slabs of solid rock, generally composed of both continental and oceanic lithosphere.

The intense heat in the Earth's core make the plates to move.

Humans can be affected by volcanic events, sea level rise, and earthquakes, all of which are related to plate tectonics.

Which of the following did the Monroe doctrine permit in Latin America
Ainat [17]

Answer:

"Existing European Colonies"

Explanation:

The Monroe Doctrine, synthesized in the phrase "America for the Americans", was elaborated by John Quincy Adams and attributed to President James Monroe in 1823. It established that any European intervention in America would be seen as an act of aggression that would require intervention of the United States of America. The doctrine was presented by President Monroe during his sixth speech to Congress on the State of the Union. It was taken with doubts, at first, and then with enthusiasm. It was a decisive moment in the foreign policy of the United States. The doctrine was conceived by its authors, especially John Quincy Adams, as a proclamation by the United States of its opposition to colonialism in response to the threat posed by the monarchical restoration in Europe and the Holy Alliance after the Napoleonic wars.
