Answer:

The correct answer is B. Alfred Wegener is the scientist who first proposed the existence of Pangaea and Panthalassa.

Explanation:

Alfred Wegener was a German astronomer and climatologist, best known for his theory of "continental drift" proposed in 1912 and published in 1915.

The theory of continental drift was based, among other things, on the way in which the shapes of the continents on each side of the Atlantic Ocean seemed to fit, like Africa and South America. It also took into account the distribution of certain geological formations and the fossil record of the northern continents, which stated that they could have shared floras and faunas in earlier geological times. With these data, Wegener calculated that the set of current continents were united in a remote past of the Earth, forming a supercontinent, called Pangea.

Why did president andrew jackson devise the spoil system?
galben [10]
According to Andrew Jackson, he developed the spoils system as a means to ensure that there was a "rotation in office." He argued that completely changing the members of the federal government under his control would make sure that there were no individuals who stayed in office for too long.

However, most Americans viewed the spoils system as a means for Andrew Jackson to reward his friends and political allies with government jobs. Jackson often gave these jobs to individuals who helped him during his presidential campaign.
