The same type of flower can be found all over the state of Wisconsin is not an evidence that supports the Theory of Continental Drift.
Option: D
Explanation:
Continental Drift theory was propounded by Alfred Wegner. The main theme of this theory was that before ages all the continents were together in the form of a single land mass surrounded by water mass. That landmass is known as Pangaea and water body is known as Panthalasa.
Tidal force and gravitational force are the two responsible powers which separated all the continents in their present position and their movements towards west and equator. There are ample numbers of evidences which show the validity of this theory. Presence of same fossils in all continents, similarity in the eastern part of South America and western part of Africa, known as Jig-saw-fit.
Answer: The tissue(s) that George destroyed was (were) probably the PHLOEM.
and the tissue that Goege left undisturbed was (were) the XYLEM.
A PHLOEM tissue is the vascular tissue in land plants primarily responsible for the distribution of sugars and nutrients manufactured in the shoot.
A XYLEM tissue is the vascular tissue in land plants primarily responsible for the distribution of water and minerals taken up by the roots; also the primary component of wood.
As can be deduced from both definitions, removal of the phloem will ultimately lead to the death of the plant because the phloem is primarily responsible for the distribution of sugars and nutrients manufactured in the shoot.
