The theory of plate tectonics describes the movement of continental plates across the Earth's surface as if they were riding on a conveyer belt of convection. Although the plate tectonic movement is extremely slow, there is evidence of this theory. Which
statements below support the theory of plate tectonics? Select ALL that apply.
A)Species became extinct more quickly at the end of the Cretaceous period.
B)99
Fossils of nearly identical species are found on both South America and
African continents.
C)Areas of subduction often have high seismic activity as one plate moves
under another plate.
D)Species become adapted to particular environments as random mutations
generate new phenotypes.
E)Marsupials existed on both North American and Australian continents
when these land masses were connected.

How does a catalyst increase the speed of a reaction? a. the catalyst eliminates the activated complex stage, allowing products to form immediately. b. the catalyst lowers the energy level of the reactants, making it easier for them to react. c. the catalyst makes it easier for the activated complex to form, lowering the activation energy. d. the catalyst raises the energy level of the products, making the reaction finish sooner. reset next
