In Wegener's view, what caused mountain ranges to form?
A)volcanoes
B)Earth shrinking
C)meteorite impacts
D)continents colliding
Answer:
D)continents colliding
Explanation:
Alfred Lothar Wegener was a brilliant geophysicist and meteorologist who was famous for his research and formulation of the hypothesis of continental drift.
He hypothesized that mountains formed as a result of the collision of two drifting continents, which causes it to crumble and fold. Wegener's theory was not accepted by the scientific community until more than fifty years later.
