What kinds of evidence found in the alps give validity to plate tectonics?
Evidence found in the Alps supporting plate tectonics includes the presence of different types of rocks that were formed at different depths and temperatures, the folding and faulting of rock layers, and the alignment of mountain ranges parallel to plate boundaries. Additionally, the discovery of marine fossils at high altitudes in the Alps suggests that the region was once submerged under the sea, supporting the theory of continental drift.
Is there evidence of plate tectonics on Venus?
There is no conclusive evidence of plate tectonics on Venus. Although Venus does have tectonic features such as fractures and faults, they do not show the same pattern of movement and subduction observed on Earth. Additionally, Venus lacks evidence of large-scale crustal recycling associated with plate tectonics.
Which of the following statements about the Progressives is not true?
Which of the following statements about the Progressives is not true Interpretations of a story with a great deal of evidence that support them are better than those without supporting evidence.
Paleomagnetic evidence was used to confirm which of the following hypotheses?
Paleomagnetic evidence was used to confirm the theory of plate tectonics. By studying the alignment of magnetic minerals in rocks, scientists were able to support the idea that continents have moved over time, providing evidence for the movement of tectonic plates.
How did scientists advance Wagner's Hypothesis into the Theory of plate Tectonics?
Scientists used new technologies such as seafloor mapping, paleomagnetism, and seismic studies to gather extensive evidence supporting the movement of tectonic plates. These observations revealed a pattern of seafloor spreading, subduction zones, and continental drift, leading to the development of the Theory of Plate Tectonics in the 1960s.
Which of the following text elements will help you find the main idea and supporting details?

Does seismologic evidence support plate tectonics?
yes it represets plate tectonics

What are Plate tectonics evidence?
The theory of plate tectonics has succumbed to the newer theory of continental drift. Scientists believe this theory today due to three main factors. First, the continents appear to fit together. When the continental shelves, as opposed to just the continents, are placed together, the fit appears uncanny. Second, the distribution of fossils is consistent with continental drift. Lastly, glacial deposits once covered parts of the earth that are currently tropical.ANSWER: The plate tectonics theory is relatively new and formulated only in the 1960s. The evidence listed above in the first answer can only support the continental drift theory which was developed by Alfred Wegener in 1912. Evidence that can support the plate tectonics theory are the age, depth of oceanic sediments, volcanic activity, geothermal gradient, gravity anomalies, paleomagnetism and seismologic evidence. If you are answering an exam question on evidence supporting plate tectonics, evidence supporting continental drift theory should only come later in your answer and should not be given too much emphasis, for the plate tectonics theory involves more than just the continental crust drifting around and cannot support the main hypotheses of the plate tectonics theory.
What is evidence for plate tectonics?
Coriolis effect.

What are some evidence of plate tectonics?
The ring of fire.
Is it legal to charge someone with a felony if there is no evidence supporting it?
No, to be charged for a crime in the court of law there has to be supporting evidence.
Which of the following statements about the Progressives is not true?
Which of the following statements about the Progressives is not true Interpretations of a story with a great deal of evidence that support them are better than those without supporting evidence.
Which of the following is not a piece of evidence supporting the idea that Europa may have a subsurface ocean?
NOT A PIECE OF EVIDENCE (as the question asked for ): Astronomers have detected small lakes of liquid water on Europa's surface.
How have technologies such as sonar and the GPS been used to provide evidence supporting the theory of plate tectonics?
Sonar and GPS have helped map the ocean floor, revealing mid-ocean ridges and deep-sea trenches that align with plate boundaries. These technologies have provided data on seafloor spreading rates and plate movements, supporting the theory of plate tectonics by showing evidence of the dynamic nature of Earth's crust. GPS has also helped track the movement of tectonic plates on land, further validating the theory.
