A. Describe the roles of mechanical and chemical weathering in the formation of the sediments that are eventually incorporated i
Serhud [2]

Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

  • Sedimentary rocks that are formed due to the accumulation of sediments that are derived from the deposition of small particles and their cementation of minerals and organic particles in the seafloor by the impact of various geological and earth processes like the wind, water, and glacier erosion.  
  • Earth's crust is covered by 73% of sedimentary rocks and about 8% of the total crustal surface. Based on their formation, these rocks are thus classified as  Siliciclastic, Carbonate, Evaporite, Iron-rich, and Phosphatic sedimentary rocks.
  • The color of these rocks is always determined by the iron and oxide contents, their size texture is a result of the density and permeability of the rocks like in the case of sandstone and limestone.
  • The relationship between the plate tectonics and the earthquakes is explained through the seismic waves that travel; through the three-layer of the earth from core to mantle to crust.
  • Earthquakes are directly related to plate boundaries as these are areas where these waves come out in the form of shocks and shaking of lands thus we expect of seeing three types of boundaries as  Convergent, Divergent and Transform.

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.
