Answer:

C.

Explanation:

Continental Drift was the theory theorized by Alfred Wegener in 1912. He hypothesized that the continents used to be a single landmass before being drifted apart. At first, the theory of Continental drift was neglected because of a lack of evidence but later other sociologists worked upon this theory and proposed the shifting of plates on the earth's crust.

<u>Wegener while studying this drifting observed several fossils and rocks that were correct. According to the findings of the theory of Continental Drift, the reason that tropical plant fossils were found on the Arctic Islands was because Arctic islands were close to the equator</u>.

So, the correct answer is option C.

How did mustafa Kemal attempt to modernize turkey ?
nlexa [21]

Answer:

Ottoman sultans governed over Turkey for about 7 centuries. After World War I, a season of disruption within Turkey came to an end when a popular, charismatic general named Mustafa Kemal took control. Kemal which translates “the perfect one." He earned his nickname due to that fact that he was able to memorize his lessons faster than any of his colleagues.

Kemal was of the motion that Turkey needed to become a modern day nation. He was of the opinion that if the Turkish people continued to with their traditions, they would suffer an attack by another western power. The sultan Kemal often traveled around the countryside to charge the people “Let science and new ideas come in freely," he usually said. “If you don’t, they will devour you.”

The ideas he proposed for modernization are:

> In every modern nation, men and women must be treated equal. He decreed that girls be allowed to attend schools. He also bestowed on women the right to vote and take jobs in business and government.

> Kemal laid aside religious law and established a western type justice system for the nation. Turkey had been ruled by Shariah law before Kemal set up a legal structure that was close to that operated by European nations.

> Kemal also introduced a western alphabet system and decreed that all newspapers, books, and street signs created with the new script.
