The biggest objection to Wegener's continental drift hypothesis was _____.

Geography

Ann [662]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a) there was no evidence to support it

Explanation:

Wegener noticed while looking at the maps that some parts of the continents, especially South America and Africa, seem to match up perfectly. This led him to think that maybe the continents in the past were actually connected, but because of some force they moved apart. He went out public with his hypothesis, but it was largely rejected, and he was laughed at and ridiculed, as the scientists thought that there's no force that can move the continents. Wegener didn't stop there, and he continued to look for clues, and finally managed to find some clues at the topography of the Atlantic Ocean. He noticed that the mid-ocean ridge is the highest, but as you move away from it, the sea mounds are becoming flatter and lower, thus a sign of erosion, and he actually turned out to be right.

Answer: The Raven (Edgar Allan Poe’s poem) fits into the Romantic movement

Explanation:

The Raven is an excellent example of Romanticism, particularly of its Dark/Gothic side.

This kind of Romanticism has a dark approach present throughout Poe´s poem. For example, from the beginning, we have a description by the narrator of the exhausted state he is in reading long-forgotten books, which sets up the dim tone of the poem.

Another characteristic of

Dark Romanticism also presents many eerie symbols such as Poe´s raven itself. Furthermore, guilt and sin, usual feelings in Dark Romantic novels´ characters, are those of the narrator, who ends up driving himself crazy.
