Why do the continental shelves match up but not the shorelines?
erosion?
Do the boundaries of the plates always match up with the edges of the continents?
No, not really. In fact, many continental plate boundaries are located in the ocean adjacent to the continent. You can see this easily in the eastern boundary of the south American plate.
Match the mountains with the type of collision that formed them?
Andes - continental oceanic aleutians - oceanic oceanic North American cordillera - arc continent Appalachians - continental continental
What is some evidence that supports continetal drift?
Some occurrences which support the continental drift hypothesis include the fact that the characteristics of the edges of each continent closely match with those of other surrounding continents. The continents also have an almost jigsaw fit.
What is composed of hot dry air?
Oxygen and carbon dioxide mix match to form hot dry air.

Did the edges stick togher of the continent?
Some edges (like those either side of the Atlantic were once all one continent, so the edges match (allowing for new land that has formed since the continental breakup occurred). However round the Pacific, the continental edges do not match as these are destructive plate boundaries. IF you wait long enough however the America will bump into Russia and they will then stick together, forming a mountain range. This has happened between India and Tibet.

What are the differences between side scan sonar multi-beam sonar?
Side scan sonar uses sonar to map the the ground below by emitting continuous sonar pulses while moving. The sound continuously reflects back to the system's receiver, which creates an image based on the energy of the signal received, where darker points in the image match things protruding from the ground and lighter spots indicate where there is nothing. It does not measure the depth. Side scan sonar is usually towed behind the vessel using it. Multibeam sonar is similar to side scan sonar, except that it is attached to the vessel (rather than being towed) and measures the time difference between sound emission and reception, rather than the energy of the incoming sound waves. Thus, it measures depth instead of making a picture.
