Which observation was not instrumenntal in formulating the hypothesis of seafloor spreading?
The observation of the alternating magnetic stripes on the seafloor was instrumental in formulating the hypothesis of seafloor spreading.
What discovery led scientists to accept Wegeners continental drift hypothesis?
One day while scientists were exploring the sea floor, they discovered sea-floor spreading, thus proving Wegener's hypothesis to be correct.
Which was not included in the support for harry hess's hypothesis of sea-floor spreading?
One key piece of support that was not included in the initial support for Harry Hess's hypothesis of seafloor spreading was the mechanism of plate tectonics. This idea was developed and integrated into the theory of seafloor spreading by geologists like Robert Dietz and J. Tuzo Wilson at a later stage.
The seafloor spreading hypothesis indicates what as the primary cause of continental movement?
The seafloor spreading hypothesis suggests that the primary cause of continental movement is the upwelling of magma at mid-ocean ridges, which creates new oceanic crust. The movement of this newly-formed crust pushes the existing seafloor apart, leading to the gradual separation and movement of the continents.
What geologic discovery in 1960 provided the evidence to verify the occurrence of continental drift?
In 1960, the discovery of oceanic spreading at mid-ocean ridges provided crucial evidence supporting the theory of continental drift. The identification of symmetrical patterns of magnetic striping on either side of these ridges indicated that new oceanic crust was being formed and pushed outward, confirming that continents could drift apart as tectonic plates moved. This process of seafloor spreading was instrumental in corroborating Alfred Wegener's earlier hypothesis of continental drift.
Which observation was not instrumenntal in formulating the hypothesis of seafloor spreading?
The observation of the alternating magnetic stripes on the seafloor was instrumental in formulating the hypothesis of seafloor spreading.
What was Arthur Holmes' hypothesis?

What was the hypothesis of the sea-floor spreading?

The ways that fossils helped support the hypothesis of continental drift?
Because of sea floor spreading
Which person's contribution was most important in spreading the ideas of the renaissance beyond Italy?
Johann Gutenberg was the person instrumental in spreading the ideas of the Renaissance beyond Italy. He introduced printing to Europe.
Which was not included in the support for harry hess's hypothesis sea floor spreading?
Granitic strips in the ocean floor ... Novanet
Wegeners hypothesis of continental drift was finally confirmed by?
