What is affect evolution?

The term coevolution (affect) is used to describe cases where two (or more) species reciprocally affect each other's evolution. So for example, an evolutionary change in the morphology of a plant, might affect the morphology of an herbivore that eats the plant, which in turn might affect the evolution of the plant, which might affect the evolution of the herbivore and so on.


What do scientist think now might be possible cause of continental drift?

They think a possible cause of continental drift is because of seafloor spreading and the water currents below the continents. +++ You are sort of on the right track, but not near enough to have helped the 9 people Answers had already counted! Sea-floor spreading is part of continental drift, and the currents are not in water, but in the viscous rock Mantle.


What was Wegener hypothesis of continental drift not widely accepted at the time it was proposed what do scientists now think might be a possible cause of continental drift?

Because he was trying to get everybody to listen to him but they didnt want to you welcome i just answered the question for ya;; lol $hit

What mechanism did Alfred Wegener propose for continental drift?

He predicted that convection currents within the earth's mantle are driven by radioactive heat might furnish the mechanism for the continental drift theory. -Lochie O'Brien and Jaidyn Tilbrook


How does the map support the theory of continental drift?

The shapes of continents appearing on the map clearly show similar shapes and how the continents might fit together.


What 2 discoveries supported hess's hypothesis?

well i am in middle school so this answer might not be right but this is my answer hope it will be useful. i think it was his continental drift and the sea-floor spreading.


What was NOT used by Wegener to support his hypothesis of continental drift?

The ratio of the price of tea in China to the average density of the Moon. Among other things. You might want to be more specific in questions like this.


Why was weGenres hypothesis of continental drift not widely accepted at the time it was proposed what do scientists now think might be a possible cause of continental drift?

Alfred Wegener's hypothesis of continental drift was not widely accepted in the early 20th century primarily because he could not provide a convincing mechanism for how continents could move through the solid ocean floor. His ideas contradicted the prevailing geological theories, and many scientists were skeptical due to a lack of empirical evidence. Today, the theory of plate tectonics provides a robust explanation for continental drift, suggesting that the movement of tectonic plates, driven by forces such as mantle convection and slab pull, is responsible for the shifting of continents over geological time.


Wegeners idea that tidal forces might cause continental drift was shown to be impossible when it was?

Wegener's idea was shown to be impossible when evidence of the mechanisms that actually drive plate tectonics, such as seafloor spreading and convection currents in the mantle, were discovered. These mechanisms provided a more comprehensive explanation for continental drift than tidal forces.


How do rocks help explain continental drift?

Rocks are very useful when studying the theory of continental drift. For example, one might find a place in Brazil where the type of rock is the same type of rock in Morocco. Or, you might notice that some geological landforms look like they're shaped in a certain way on the eastern South American coast. You might find the exact opposite shape of rocks or landforms on the western side of Africa. This helps explain that South America was once connected to Africa.


How could the evolution of a characteristic within one species affect the evolution of a characteristic within another species?

A simple coevolution explanation here. A population of rabbits that is running faster, on average, over time is going to affect the population of foxes that pursue the rabbits as food. Some foxes will have variations that lead to faster running and these foxes will be the ones that are reproductively successful and give rise to following generations of foxes.
