Answer:

Option D, Continents cannot cut through the ocean floor.

Explanation:

It was believed earlier that oceans were the land bridges that used to connect  different geologic plates of planet earth earlier, had now sank down and thus there exists no connection between the tectonic plates. Therefore,  without any link or connection, continents cannot cut through the ocean floor.

Also as per the Land Bridge Theory , there has been continuous shifting of dry land due to which identical land species on different continents were found.

Hence, option D is correct

o-na [289]

Answer:

C). Bonds between atoms break and reform.

Explanation:

A Chemical reaction is defined as the process in which the substances(two or more) interact and form new substances by rearranging the atom structure of the substances. This process primarily consists of two steps i.e. breaking of chemical bonds that exist between the atoms in the original substances and the formation of new bonds to produce the new substance. Thus, the bonds break and reform. Hence, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.
