Scientists gather information that earth is continually changing by observing tectonic plate movements and studying how the layers of the crust were formed. For example, the continental drift is the idea of the continents that were all together the the years passed and the continents got separate. This idea was first suggested by Alfred Wegener in 1915. He called the single large continent Pangea. Today, there are many kinds of evidence that support continental movement. The evidence include: In 1858: Geologist Eduard Seuss points out that fossils of the Glossopteris plant were found in 5 continents and in India. Also, In 1965: Geologist Edward Bullard uses computers to match coats of South America and Africa. They match extremely well at an ocean depth of 1,000 m.
Alfred wegener a German geologist had an idea that the continental drift had happened. He said that the continents fitted like a puzzle piece. The name of the big he put is Pangea. This is evidence that scientists had from the continental drift.
Scientists gather information that earth is continually changing by observing tectonic plate movements and studying how the layers of the crust were formed. This was discovered by J. Tuzo Wilson, who first suggested the idea of continental drift: Earth's land masses in a continually state of motion, another continuing event that evidences constant change, is sea floor spreading: new seabed being created by lava flows along volcanic ridges.
The tools and processes that surround us to gather and interpret data
scientists gather weather data from high in the sky using weather satellites
induction
the ability to continuously gather, interpret, and utilize information when applicable
making measurments
A paper and a pencils
Scientists used microscopes to gather observations that led to the formation of the cell theory. These observations allowed scientists to see and study cells, leading to the discovery of their structure and function.
Because they can gather information.
