Answer:

Option B , 10-20%

Explanation:

If we look at the map we could see that majority of the coastal area of the United States is moderately eroding. This color is denoted by orange. Hence, one thing is sure that moderately eroding coastline comprises of more than 50% of the total coast line.  

Hence, option C cannot be correct.  

Now if we just look at the red colored coast line we could see that a considerable length of red coast can be seen which is any case is definitely more than 5%. Hence, the only option left is option B.

Describe the main reason why the scientific community did not accept Alfred wegener idea of continental drift?
lara31 [8.8K]
<span>I think they were also too skeptic to believe the continent did move or pull apart, even today do you believe that the continents broke from one big flat plate, and that they pulled apart? They also wonder what large force would be responsible for the movement.

It was much later that evidences from plant and animal features that had similarity from two different planets came up that scientists began accepting the idea of continental drift.
And similar rock strata from two different opposite continents, showed similar rock strata.
All these evidences came up much later after Alfred Wengener.

So Alfred Wengener was honored Posthumously</span>
