The theory developed by Wegener that the continents of the Earth were once a part of a single big super-continent is based on his observations that these continents fir together as a part of the jig-saw puzzle. And these observed continents have similar flora and fauna along with similar rock formations. Such a derivation of theory from observations is an inductive reasoning.

Hence, the answer is 'inductive reasoning'.

Anit [1.1K]

Homeostasis can be defined as the state of maintenance of the constant internal conditions by the living organisms. The homeostasis is maintained by the body so that it may function properly.
