Answer:

a thermal inversion.                    

Explanation:

In climatology an inversion, is referred to as an aberration of temperature, is a variance from the natural altitude shift in an atmospheric area. This almost often relates to a spectral delay rate inversion. Outdoor temperature usually declines with a growth in altitude. Hotter air is kept over colder air while on an inversion; the usual weather profile is reversed with altitude.

An inversion causes near- air emissions, including smog. The inversion will also remove convection by serving as a 'bar' When, for any of the causes, this cap is removed, convection about any precipitation existing can then burst into destructive rainstorms.

Which statements describe Wegener’s ideas that became known as the theory of continental drift? Check all that apply.
yarga [219]

Answer:

Options (1), (2) and (3)

Explanation:

Alfred Wegener was the person who first invented the continental drift theory.  He observed that the continents move from one place to another with respect to a fixed point. He put forward many pieces of evidence but he was unable to explain the main mechanism that is responsible for these motion of continents.

The pieces of evidence that were given by Alfred Wegener supporting the continental drift theory are-

(a) The continents move slowly and continuously from one place to another and the edges of these continents perfectly match with the other.

(b) Similar fossil assemblages were found in currently separated continents.

(c) Similar rock types are also found and suggested that the continents were once all together forming a huge landmass which is known as the Pangaea.

Later this theory was modified into a more simple and universally accepted theory which is commonly known as the Plate tectonic theory.

Hence, the correct answers are options (1), (2) and (3).
