The correct answers are:

<em>- habitat destruction;</em>

The fossils fuels are devastating towards the habitat, and at the places where they are extracted, or at the places where they are manufactured, or there's some accidents with them, they cause a very big long term damage to the habitat.

<em>- air pollution;</em>

Through the combustion of the fossils fuels, lots of gases go into the atmosphere, change its composition, and pollute it.

<em>- add to greenhouse effect;</em>

From the fossil fuel combustion (mainly from oil) and leaking (from natural gas), the emissions of carbon dioxide and methane are significantly increased in the atmosphere, and they are the two gases that contribute the most to the Greenhouse effect.

<em>- water pollution;</em>

It is common for the fossil fuels to end up in the water bodies, be it in small amounts though the garbage, or by some disastrous leaking, and whichever way it is, it is totally destroying the water for a long period of time.

Question 5(Multiple Choice Worth 3 points) (02.01 MC) Wegener's theory of continental drift was formulated at a time when eviden
Sergio039 [100]

The correct answer is - Seafloor spreading at the mid-ocean ridge provides the mechanism for tectonic plate movement.

Harry Hess is one of the people that is most important when it comes to the proving and world wide acceptance of the continental drift theory.

Hess was very interested in the topic, and he was constantly looking for clues that would bring light to it and finally have a definite proof of it. While sailing through the Atlantic and doing some examinations, Hess noticed that there high mountains in the water, having flat peaks, and being arranged in an interesting manner. These underwater mountains, named guyouts, were the highest at a certain point, and than on both sides, as the distance was increasing they were becoming smaller and smaller.

What Hess stumbled upon was the seafloor spreading and how it works, and he recognized that quickly. He immediately went on to share what he discovered, that there's magma coming from bellow, solidifying and spreading, thus creating new crust while pushing the old crust away from the center, which is the reason why the continents are moving.
