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.
Greers most likely experience a dry climate with little rainfall.
Answer: Option C
<u>Explanation:</u>
Sierra Nevada mountains are a major mountain range in the western North America in the state of California. The weather of the Sierra Nevada mountains is very weird because the western slope of the mountain has expanses of coniferous forests like pine, cedar and this side of the mountain experience high rainfall and remains wet much of the year but the eastern side of the slope is dominated by the high desert vegetation having dry climate and very less rainfall resulting in sparse vegetation.
Austria-Hungary was a nation of many different nationalities. If each ethnic group became an independent nation, there would be no more Austria-Hungary. Therefore, the nationalists were a threat to Austria-Hungary because if they took action, the empire would fall apart.
