Answer:
oceanic crust sinks because it is denser and has higher specific gravity than the more silicon aluminum enriched continental crust. What drives substitution is convection and conduction in outer core of earth, that heat , only a small part of which is due radioactive isotopes, has to make it's way to Earth's surface by both conduction and convection. Iron and nickel o have the highest specific gravities of the 10 most common elements in the Milky Way Galaxy. This is why oceanic crust sinks and is subducted continental crust has to have a lot more force applied before it inks, because it doesn't want to sink.
That point is located offshore in the icy waters of the north
Atlantic Ocean, about 37 miles south of the coast of Iceland.
We have 8 continents on the Earth
Georgius Agricola (Georg Bauer), also known as the 'father of mineralogy', is considered the founder of geology as a scientific discipline. That is, he provided the foundations for the study of the Earth (and its rocks, minerals, and fossils), in a systematic, recorded, way.
Answer:
<em>The correct option is theories. </em>
Explanation:
A scientific theory is a detailed explanation of natural researches which are supported through evidence. Scientific theories can be changed if other evidence are made which support another theory. Hence, scientific theories can change. The concepts of plate tectonics and evolution change overtime whenever new pieces of evidence are discovered. Hence, they are scientific theories.
Other options such as hypotheses are not correct because a hypothesis is just a tentative statement which can either be proved to be correct or wrong. Observations are not made on evidences hence the option observations is also not correct.
