less far fetched

Explanation:

When plate tectonics was discovered, Wegener's continental drift theory became less far fetched.

Alfred Wegener in 1912 proposed the theory of continental drift. He provided a wide array of evidence to support his claims.

  • His idea was not accepted by the scientific community of his days.
  • There was no mechanism available and known to account for the moving plates.
  • Late on through the years, the idea of mantle convection came into lime light around 1930.
  • By 1960, the theory sea floor spreading was already established.
  • This lead to the advent of the theory of plate tectonics.
  • In the end, the theory of Continental drift became less far fetched and better understood.

The physical processes on Earth create constant change. These processes—including movement in the tectonic plates in the crust, wind and water erosion, and deposition—shape features on Earth's surface.Lithospheric Processes cause magmatism, mantle dynamics, and faulting, which in turn shape the Earth's ever-changing surface.

The four common Planet Surface Processes are: Cratering, Volcanoes, Erosion, and Weathering (chemical and physical).The Earth's surface is constantly changing through forces in nature. The daily processes of precipitation, wind and land movement result in changes to landforms over a long period of time. Driving forces include erosion, volcanoes and earthquakes.

Lithospheric Processes. Lithospheric Processes cause magmatism, mantle dynamics, and faulting, which in turn shape the Earth's ever-changing surface. ... We also study the high temperature systems in the Earth's interior that produce magmas, drive metamorphism, and create mantle heterogeneity.
