Hawaii is a small group of islands, or archipelago. Hawaii is one of the 50 states of America, and the only state to not be apart of the continental states (48 constituent states + Alaska). Hawaii is home to volcanoes, however the eruptions that come from the volcanoes are very small and ineffective. Hawaii is also very hot, and is 1 of the 2 states that DONT follow daylight savings, the other one being arizona.
Answer:
- Shape of the continents
- Fossils of the same species found on continents that are not connected
- Evidence of ice sheets in places that are hot in the present
- Mid-ocean ridges
Explanation:
The continental drift theory is a theory that suggests that the continents are always on the move, thus they change their shape, location, collide with each other, move away from each other etc.
The shape of South America and Africa is one of the evidences. If the shapes of the continents are taken out of a map, and the eastern coast of South America and western coast of Africa are merged, they fit in perfectly.
There are numerous fossils of the same species of animals and plants that have been found all over the world, even though the continents are isolated and separated by water bodies.
In some places that are very hot in the presence, like South Africa, have evidence of ice sheets. In the current conditions that is simply not possible considering that the temperature in this part of the world goes well over 40 C degrees.
The mid-ocean ridges are very nice proof of the continental drift theory. They are one of the evidence that can be observed in the present, where new crust is constantly forming and pilling up, while pushing the old crust sideways further away from it.

Answer:
None of the above
Explanation:
The Bowen reaction series provides an insight to what happens to a crystallizing magma as it cools. There are two arms in the series, the continuous and the discontinuous series. The continuous series is made of the plagioclase feldspar. At high temperature, calcic plagioclase are crystallized out of the melt and at lower temperature, sodic plagioclase begins to from.
The discontinuous series consists of the trend through which other minerals are crystallized. At high temperature, olivine first forms and quartz is the last to crystallized out.
For a given melt, according to the Bowen's reaction series, the composition becomes more felsic at low temperatures. The silica content increases considerably.
The series is designed for silicate minerals found in nature and not sulfate minerals. The continuous series is for plagioclase feldspars not amphibole. Amphibole is in the discontinuous series.
