Answer:
Option (C)
Explanation:
The continental drift hypothesis refers to the large scale, slow motion of continents over the surface of the large ocean basins and it was discovered by Mr. Alfred Wegener. He contributed some evidence regarding this continental drift hypothesis, such as the matching of the continental margins, finding similar fossils in distant continents, finding similar rock types as well as structures present in them. The movement of glaciers and their changing patterns were also observed to prove this theory.
But, of all the given options, one observation does not support the hypothesis, i.e. the lithosphere showing ductile nature in comparison to the brittle rock behavior in the layer of the asthenosphere.
In the brittle zone, the rocks fractures due to the force acting on it, whereas, in the ductile zone, the rocks tend to flow during the time of deformation.
Thus, the correct answer is option (C).
Answer:
542.5 km
Explanation:
average thickness of granitic continental crust = 35 km
Average density of crust ( from section C1 ) (pc) = 3.3 g/cm^3
Average density of mantle (Pd) = 3.1 g/cm^3
applying the concept of Isostay
attached below is the missing part of the question and solution
Answer:
The development of a new subdivision in a remote area would lead to the creation of a poor area, without development possibilities, especially since there are no utility services.
Answer:
Physical Properties of Water (H2O):
It is Colorless Liquid.
It is Tasteless.
It ha a Specific Gravity of 1 at room Temperature.
It freezes at (0) zero, degree Celsius.
It boils at 100 degrees Celsius.
Chemical Properties:
It is the BEST solvent of all solvents.
When decomposes, it gives two atoms of Hydrogen (H2) and one atom of Oxygen (O).
It is an excellent diluent for all acids.
It reacts vigorously with Sulphuric Acid(H2SO4) producing HEAT. Acid should be added to Water, Not the other way round.
Water is an essential Nutrient to Humans, Animals and Plants.

Answer:
Silicate-Oxygen tetrahedro
Explanation:
Silicate-Oxygen tetrahedro are the most abundant and basic structure of common minerals.
These are silicate minerals which formed to silicate rock forming mineral. These constitute about 90% of earth crust. Silica SiO2 consider as most common mineral on the surface of earth also known as Quartz. The the most andundant element in the earth crust is oxygen, mainly found in combine form.
