Why did scientists in 1915 not accept wegeners idea of continental drift?
Scientists in 1915 did not accept Alfred Wegener's idea of continental drift because he lacked a plausible mechanism for how the continents could move. Additionally, Wegener's ideas were seen as radical and went against the prevailing scientific beliefs of the time, so there was resistance to accepting his theory without more concrete evidence. The technology available at the time also did not provide the necessary tools to support Wegener's hypothesis.
How far of was Eratosthenes measurement of the Earth?
Eratosthenes' measurement of the Earth's circumference was remarkably accurate, coming within about 1% of the modern accepted value. This shows the impressive skill and accuracy of his calculations, especially considering the limited technology available to him at the time.
What evidence do the scientists have to support the idea that continents were once a large landmass?
The evidence scientists have are fossil clues, plant clues, climate clues and rock clues. Fossil clues supported the idea because a certain fossil the Mesosaurus was found in two continents on opposite sides of the Earth and the only reason for that is if the lands came together at one time. Plant clues support the idea the same way fossil clues do, like the plant called a Glossopteris was found in different areas around the world. Climate clues support the idea because some of the fossils and plants from warmer climates were found in the Arctic. That explains why there are glaciers in tropical areas. Lastly rock clues support the idea because if the continents were once connected at one time, then the rocks that made up the continents should be in the same locations where they were joined.
What can a person use to forecast weather when a meteorologist report is not available?
When a meteorologist report is not available, a person can use various methods to forecast weather. Observing natural signs, such as changes in wind direction, cloud formations, and animal behavior, can provide clues about impending weather conditions. Additionally, using tools like barometers to measure atmospheric pressure or thermometers for temperature can help predict short-term weather changes. Online weather apps and radar websites can also be useful for real-time updates if internet access is available.

What key information does modern classification rely upon that was not available in Linnaeus time?
Modern classification relies on genetic information, particularly DNA sequencing, which was not available during Linnaeus's time. This allows scientists to understand evolutionary relationships between species more accurately than just relying on physical characteristics. Additionally, modern classification takes into account ecological and behavioral data to better classify organisms.
