What observations led to Alfred wegener to develop the hypothesis of continental drift?
The observation that led Alfred Wegener to develop the hypothesis of continental drift was that the continents looked like a puzzle that could fit together and then found out that fossils of similar kind and whats left of similar plants were found on opposite sides of the world.
What are the soil and rocks left behind by a glacier called?
Glacial drift.
Pieces of bones shells or plants left behind are called wat?
fossils?
Fossils formed when an organism dissolves and leaves an empty space in a rock are called?
Voids left behind by once present fossils are called 'trace fossils'.
How does a rock from the seabed end up in areas with no beaches?
Possibly from continental drift or maybe glaciers transported them during the ice age. You can find sea shells in wyoming as high as the continental divide. Maybe at one time those mountains were actually below sea level and continetal drift pushed them way above sea level but left some sea life behind.
How did people know dinosaurs are real?
When a dino dies, it becomes a fossil. We know that the dinosaurs existed because they left behind fossils we see today.
What fossils formed when an organism dissolves and leaves an empty space in a rock are called?
Voids left behind by once present fossils are called 'trace fossils'.
What parts of plants and animals are left behind?
When an animal dies, usually only the bones remain and turn into fossils.
What are imprint fossils?
They are preserved forms of animal or anything else that was left behind form thousand and thousand of years ago.
After the last ice age stranded ice blocks left behind by the continental glacier melted and formed what?
As the ice blocks left behind by the continental glacier melted after the last ice age, they formed bodies of water known as kettle lakes. These kettle lakes are depressions in the landscape caused by the melting of the ice blocks, which were then filled with water from the melted ice.
What is the cavity left behind in the rock after an organism's hard part has dissolved?
The cavity left behind in the rock after an organism's hard part has dissolved is called a mold. Mold fossils are negative impressions of the organism that once occupied that space.
What is the definition of stratified drift?
Stratified drift refers to sediment deposits arranged in distinct layers, typically left behind by glaciers or meltwater streams. These layers can vary in composition, size, and sorting based on the specific conditions during deposition.
