Answer:

The fact is wegner research lay the foundation stones for the understanding of the plate tectonic theory and later on modified by other scientists.

Explanation:

  • Alfred Wegener's research was based on his findings on the earth's surface at that time based on his beliefs, and the researches and theories he came across.  <u>Some of the factors that he named were similar climates found across all the continents which were once the part of the same Super landmass Pangaea. </u>
  • Apart from that the <u>Jigsaw fit puzzle</u> of the two landmasses have similar indented coastlines and similarities in their structure and composition of rocks  , and the fossil evidence is clear enough to prove that bothe landmass had similar type of environment and that drifting away created the gaps in their environment and hence the flora and fauna were found to present at both the places.

Many areas of the world produce just enough of an agricultural product to eat, but not enough to sell for profit. This is called
Lynna [10]

The correct answer is - A) subsistence farming.


Subsistence farming is the type of farming that is mostly practiced in the less developed countries. In here we have production that is just about enough for the needs of the country (and big portion of the production doesn't even come out on the home market, but you eat what you produce, or trade with someone you know). Also this type of farming is still based on primitive tools and is heavily dependant on the climate, and that makes it very unstable and more often than not people are starving because not enough food has been produced.
