Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

The Pacific range is usually referred to the long coast range that is located along the Pacific coast, forming part of the Western Cordillera. It is comprised of mountains such as the Rocky Mountains, the Sierra Nevada and the Columbia mountain.

The Sierra Nevada is one of the major mountain range of the Western Cordillera, which is formed due to the subduction of the Pacific plate below the North American plate. This mountain formed nearly 5 million years back that runs along the eastern side of the state of California.

Thus, the Sierra Nevada Mountains are located in the Pacific range.

Hence, the correct answer is option (A).

Which of the following is an example of an outdated theory based on the consensus of the scientific community ? A. Big Bang
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

B. Geocentric solar system

Explanation:

The scientific community is the one that accepts or dismisses theories. Some theories are accepted, and that is because there are enough evidence that support them, while some theories are dismissed as they have been proven over time that they are not correct.

One of the theories that is outdated and has been dismissed by the scientific community is the theory of the geocentric solar system. This theory has been in place and widely accepted for a very long time, pretty much two millenniums.

This theory was basically suggesting that the Earth is the center of the solar system. The Sun, Moon, all the other planets that were known, as well as the stars, were all orbiting around the Earth. This has been proven as wrong (except that the Moon is orbiting around Earth), and that the theory is far away from the truth, so naturally once there were enough evidence it was dismissed.
