Answer:

Until early 1970's the Turkish Straits were known as a rich and productive marine area. The Straits also used to play an important role as a biological corridor between the Mediterranean and the Black Sea, and acted as an acclimatization zone for the Mediterranean species.

The Tigris and Euphrates rivers provided Mesopotamia with enough fresh water and fertile soil to allow ancient people to develop irrigation and grow supplies surplus.

The role the Tigris and Euphrates river played in the development of civilization is that they enriched the soil and helped farmers grow supplies surpluses.

Answer:

Plate Tectonic theory

Explanation:

Plate tectonics is based on continental drift,  and seafloor spreading the three pieces of evidence that support this are those given by Alfred Wagner

As the Jigsaw fit between continents that were one at some point in time.

As the polar wandering or the flight to poles i.e how continents are drifted way to poles by forces of wind.

Presence of the same flora and fauna and glacial valley formation that were once a part of the same continent of Pangea and Gondwana.

The hypothesis ultimately got replaced by seafloor spreading as the drawbacks of drift theory which would not give sufficient evidence for the spreading away of continents. Earth's tectonic forces and internal sources of energy i.e heat produced by radioactive decay was not emphasized and Alfred's continuous orogeny could not have been possible.
