Ear Sci, Cont Drift/Interior Post Assessment, Re-take

What do you call the evidence of Wegener's Theory that tells about the remains of an organism that lived long time ago?

• Ashes
• Bones
• Follicles
• Fossils

What do you call the supercontinent landmass formed million years ago?

• Pangea
• Asia
• Pantallasa
• Eurasi

What is this a picture of?

• plate tectonics
• continental drift
• pangea
• glacier scaring

What evidence did Wegener use to support his theory?

• Continents and fossils fitting together/matching-up like puzzle pieces 
• glacier scars and other climate evidence from temperature
• mountain ranges and rocks line up across continents
• all of the above

What happens to temperature as you go deeper in the Earth?

• decreases
• increases
• fluctuates
• remains the same

Which of these layers is ALL solid iron and nickle?

• inner core
• outer core
• lithosphere
• mesosphere

As you travel from the INNER CORE to the CRUST, how would temperature, pressure and density of the material change?

• The would all increase
• The would all decrease.
• They would stay the same.  
• Temperature would decrease, but pressure and density would increase. 

What two specific continents fit together most noticeably?

• Africa and North America
• South America and Europe
• South America and Africa
• Antartica and Africa

Why did no one believe Wegener's thoery?

• He could not explain HOW the continents moved
• He didn't have evidence
• His data was wrong
• He didn't use the right technology to gather data

This layer of Earth is solid Iron and Nickel

• Outer Core
• Mantle
• Inner Core
• Crust
