16. What finally caused scientists to accept the plate tectonic theory?

A) Ocean floor evidence of sea floor spreading.

B) Fossil evidence of supercontinents like Pangaea.

C) Magnetic pole wandering alignment of repositioned plates.

D) Matching glacier scraping patterns on the coasts of different contents.

Answer:

A)Ocean floor evidence of sea floor spreading.

Explanation:

evidence pointing to the steps or process  of seafloor spreading and effective plate motion This theory was accepted by many scientist because  it depended  on hard evidence and could describe most of the modern geological structures such as ocean basins,

What is the tectonic theory?

The theory of plate tectonics plates  says  that Earth's surface is made of rigid slabs of rock, or plates, that move to each other.

What is a tectonic plate?

They are huge slabs of rock that cover the earths mantle When a earthquake occurs that's because the tectonic plate is breaking  that makes the ground shake  During the earthquake and afterward, the plates keep on shaking until they are stuck again!

Hope this helps!

The plate tectonic theory gave the concept of land and sea formation. "Ocean floor evidence of seafloor spreading" acted as evidence to support the plate theory. Thus, option A is correct.

The plate tectonic theory states about the formation of the lithosphere by the movement of the plate tectonics located deep in the mantle and core layer of the earth. These plates show movement slides over each other to produce lands and drifts to form the oceans.

At a very early there was a supercontinent, Pangaea that slowly shows the formation of the current continent by the movement of the tectonic plates. These solid hard rocks of the earth layers allowed the formation of the various land formations.

The seafloor spreading is the best evidence that supports the tectonic plate theory that described the formation of the oceanic structures including the trenches and basins. The geological structures of the ocean floors supported the theory.

Therefore, option A. evidence of seafloor spreading supported the plate tectonic theory.

Recently, a type of genetically modified fish has
been approved for sale for human consumption.
The modified fish contain a growth hormone
gene from a different fish species. As a result, the
modified fish grow rapidly and are ready to sell in
almost half the time it normally would take. The
modified fish are able to produce the new growth
hormone because
(1) each of their cells contains the new gene to
produce growth hormone
(2) each gene contains the code to synthesize
carbohydrates
(3) the altered gene directs the mitochondria to
synthesize the hormone
(4) the modified body cells are able to reproduce
by meiosis

Why would these modifications be important i.e.
