Scientists recently discovered that rocks collected from the Franklin Mountains in West Texas and rocks collected

from mountains in eastern Antarctica were exactly the same age. Further research showed that the rocks were

chemically and geologically the same and came from the same magma source. This discovery provides evidence

of

А

coastal erosion

B

plate tectonics

с

ocean currents

D

glacial melting


Sagot :

Answer:

Plate tectonics

Explanation:

Plate tectonics explains the features and movement of earth surface in the present and the past.

These plates are pieces of cracked shell that rest on the hot , molten rock of earth's mantle. The heat from the radioactive processes within the planet's inferior causes the plates to move, sometimes towards and sometimes away from each other.

These rocks collected were as a result of plate tectonics which drifted away.
