Answer: The evidence that was found for continental drift/plate tectonics after Wegener published his theory is the existence of mid-ocean ridges, where seafloor spreading starts

Explanation:

Hess envisaged that oceans grew from their centres, with molten material called basalt gushing up from the Earth's mantle just along the mid ocean ridges. Hess explained that this event created new seafloor which then spread away from the ridge in both directions.

This evidence was found by Hess after Wegener published his theory on continental drifts/plate tectonics.

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

nearness to sea or ocean

Explanation:

Presence of water body is the factor that is responsible for the difference in annual temperature although the Humid Continental and Marine climates are present at the same latitudes. Marine climates are located near the water bodies such as ocean or sea while on the other hand, Humid Continental climates are located farther from the water bodies such as sea or ocean.
