Answer:
Option (C)
Explanation:
The continental drift hypothesis refers to the large scale, slow motion of continents over the surface of the large ocean basins and it was discovered by Mr. Alfred Wegener. He contributed some evidence regarding this continental drift hypothesis, such as the matching of the continental margins, finding similar fossils in distant continents, finding similar rock types as well as structures present in them. The movement of glaciers and their changing patterns were also observed to prove this theory.
But, of all the given options, one observation does not support the hypothesis, i.e. the lithosphere showing ductile nature in comparison to the brittle rock behavior in the layer of the asthenosphere.
In the brittle zone, the rocks fractures due to the force acting on it, whereas, in the ductile zone, the rocks tend to flow during the time of deformation.
Thus, the correct answer is option (C).
Answer:
The embryological data have advantage over DNA evidence.
Explanation:
- Embryology is the study of earliest phase of any organism i.e development and formation of embryos.
- The embryological data is very important because it give the proper information about the mechanisms that have both normal and abnormal development.
- Similarly the embryological data also helps in studying the evolution over the generations.
- The overall organization, its process of development can be properly known by embryology over DNA evidence.
