<span>When Alfred Wegener developed the theory of continental drift in 1912, not many thought those theories of movement of continents are valid and the scientific community did not accept his theory at that time and that did not allow him to research further on ocean floor, paleo-magnetism, and earthquakes.</span>

It was not accepted during Wegener's lifetime because, mainstream scientists that time didn't know the mantle was liquid, they thought it was solid.  They thought the throry was illegitimate because continents did not fit exactly together.

The evidence supporting Wegener's theory was all discovered after his lifetime, like the Seismographs revealed a pattern of volcanoes and earthquakes, and Radiometric dating of rocks revealed a surprisingly young oceanic crust.

The body monitors fat stores by assessing levels of the hormone ____, which is produced and secreted by fat cells.​
Ivan
<span>Leptin. Leptin is produced by fat cells and released when your body has enough fat in storage. When leptin reaches the brain, it gives your body a feeling of fullness so that you will not want to continue eating. Individuals with leptin resistance, where the leptin hormone signals are not received as they should be, are often overweight because they do not have the same brain signals telling them that their body is full.</span>
