Question
when exploring the ocean floor, what is one geological feature discovered that supported wegners theory?
(1 point)
o increased marine life around plates
o underwater mountain ranges
o shipwrecks on the ocean floor
o different temperatures of the water
Wegener's theory (continental drift) proposed that continents move. Underwater mountain ranges (mid - ocean ridges) show new crust formation. This supports the idea of tectonic activity and movement, which aligns with continental drift concepts. Increased marine life is ecological, shipwrecks are human - related, and water temperature is a physical property, none directly supporting geological movement in Wegener's theory.
