continental drift was first proposed by a scientist named alfred . he theorized that the were once one large landmass that drift
asambeis [7]

Answer: large-scale horizontal movements of continents relative to one another and to the ocean basins during one or more episodes of geologic time. This concept was an important precursor to the development of the theory of plate tectonics, which incorporates it.The idea of a large-scale displacement of continents has a long history. Noting the apparent fit of the bulge of eastern South America into the bight of Africa, the German naturalist Alexander von Humboldt theorized about 1800 that the lands bordering the Atlantic Ocean had once been joined. Some 50 years later, Antonio Snider-Pellegrini, a French scientist, argued that the presence of identical fossil plants in both North American and European coal deposits could be explained if the two continents had formerly been connected, a relationship otherwise difficult to account for. In 1908 Frank B. Taylor of the United States invoked the notion of continental collision to explain the formation of some of the world’s mountain ranges.

in 1990, world rice production was 350 million tons. in 1999 it had risen to 400 million tons . what was the percentage increase
larisa [96]
In 1990 rice production= 350 million tons 

In 1999 rice production = 400 million tons 


400-350= 50 million ton increase 

50/350=.1428   To calculate the percentage increase you divide the total amount increased by the initial amount to determine the percent. 

Therefore the world rice production increased by approximately 14% from 1990 to 1999.

If place A lies at the height of 2500 meters above the sea level and its surface temperature is 20 degree celcious, estimate the
Alchen [17]

Answer:

<u>14°C</u>

Explanation:

Place A = 2500 m = 20°C

Place B = 1500 m = ? °C

First of all, we know that <em>the air temperature decreases with 6°C at every 1000 m.</em>

So, now it is easy to find the temperature from place B.

If in place A, at 2500 m is 20°C, then at place B the temperature will be with 6°C lower.

Place B = 20°C - 6°C = <u>14°C</u>
