The correct answer to this open question is the following.

James Hutton, the author of Theory of the Earth (1785), studied the stratification of rocks and concluded that our planet is permanently in a cycle of constant renewal. His theory included the constant erosion of the exposed soil and the rocks due to the elements of nature. New sediments that resulted from this process finally turned into solid forms due to the pressure and the heat of the earth.

Hames Hutton (1726-1797) was a scientist from Scottland, considered by many specialists as the founder of the father of modern Geography. He was a firm believer that by observing the cycles of erosion of the elements of earth, you could understand its history.

Which monsoon would a trader rely on to sail from Africa to India ?
jolli1 [7]
<span>Sometime before 100 B.C., Greek sailors coming from Egypt discovered a shortcut to India.  Much easier and more direct than the arduous overland route, or than hugging the deserted coastlines of Arabia and Persia for 5,000 miles, this route took only weeks to travel.  Sailing straight out into the open waters of the Arabian Sea during the late spring, ships were whisked by the monsoon winds on a steady northeast course, arriving on India’s west coast by mid-summer. It was a daring feat for those first sailors who attempted it.  In a time when ships rarely ventured out of sight of land, and open waters invited the prospect of drifting aimlessly at sea, it took an extraordinarily bold, unlucky, or stupid navigator to sail out into one of the largest bodies of water on the planet.  Fortunately for those first crews who made the attempt, they were saved by one of the great forces of nature: the monsoon.
