Answer:

Explanation:

When a horizontal pressure is applied to rocks, the earth's surface will form lines that are perpendicular to the direction of the pressure. This can be compared to folds in a wrinkled rug lying on a floor.

When a horizontal pressure is applied to rocks, the earth's surface will form lines that are perpendicular to the direction of the pressure.

Which of the following is an example of an outdated theory based on the consensus of the scientific community ? A. Big Bang
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

B. Geocentric solar system

Explanation:

The scientific community is the one that accepts or dismisses theories. Some theories are accepted, and that is because there are enough evidence that support them, while some theories are dismissed as they have been proven over time that they are not correct.

One of the theories that is outdated and has been dismissed by the scientific community is the theory of the geocentric solar system. This theory has been in place and widely accepted for a very long time, pretty much two millenniums.

This theory was basically suggesting that the Earth is the center of the solar system. The Sun, Moon, all the other planets that were known, as well as the stars, were all orbiting around the Earth. This has been proven as wrong (except that the Moon is orbiting around Earth), and that the theory is far away from the truth, so naturally once there were enough evidence it was dismissed.

Which form of democratic government does Canada have?
Vaselesa [24]
 Best Answer:  It's both. It's a Constitutional Monarchy (Queen is head of state, has a lot of powers, but doesn't use them often), and it's a parliamentary democracy where Parliament is the legislative body and is democratically elected (or well, the House of Commons at least anyway).<span>
