Question

Water is one of the most powerful forces on Earth. How does the example shown here illustrate the theory of uniformitarianism?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

The theory of uniformatrianism was proposed by James Hutton, a Scottish Geologist by profession.

This theory was a contrast proponent to the tenets of the theory of catastrophism in existence before then in the scientific circles

  The theory states that "the present is the key to the past and geologic processes occurring today have happened in the times past".

• The theory correlates geologic processes as continuous in nature rather can punctuated situations.
• Erosion occurring today has been changing the land surface on earth as far back into the geologic times and periods.
• From the image, the erosional activities are still continuing today.
