A mountain chain of sedimentary rock may form as a result of a

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

Explanation:

To have a chain of sedimentary rock as a mountain, we would have to reconstruct the geologic history of such terrain.

For a sedimentary rock to form, a basin of deposition is required to hold the sediments derieved from the country rocks.

Sedimentary rocks are formed from weathered and eroded materials.

In the basin, the sediments begins to lie on top of one another to form sedimentary strata.

Diagenesis further lithifies the sediments and turns them into a sedimentary rock.

With time, as the area responds to regional uplift, Sedimentary basins can become Highlands.

At some convergent boundaries between two continental crusts, sediments that have been buried can become uplifted by convergence.

Continental margins have nearly the same densities. Instead of subduction, mountain building process occurs due to an uplift of the terrane.

Which feature is considered evidence for continental drift?

Answers

Plate tectonic is a scientific theory that says the Earth’s lithosphere is divided into several plates. The plates glide over the mantle. In early 20th century, this theoretical model builds on the concept of continental drift. It was first proposed by the scientist Alfred Wegener in 1912. After seafloor spreading was validated, the theory was accepted by the geoscientific community.
