Biology

blondinia [14]3 years ago

The correct answer is Wegener's theory did not explain how the continents could move.

The theory given by Wegener's states that once the continents were once joined together but the continents are separated now. He was not able to tell the name of the force that made the continents apart. He did not have any explanation regarding the fact or the reason behind continental drift. The theory of plate tectonics on the other hand describes that the continents were broken down into slabs which moves as a result of movement of tectonic plates.

Fantom [35]

Answer:

A snail eats a clam.

Explanation:

Interactions always occur between organisms in an ecosystem. An interaction between two organisms is called SYMBIOSIS. Symbiosis consists other types which includes PREDATION. Predation is a kind of symbiotic relationship between two organisms in which one kills and feeds on the other in order to obtain energy. The organism that kills is called the PREDATOR while the organism that is killed is called PREY.

In this example, a snail feeding on a clam best represents the example because the snail (PREDATOR) is obtaining energy by killing the clam (PREY). In other options, no organism is killed.
