continental drift started the theory of plate tectonics. It is thought that plate motion produces mountains‚ ocean ridge systems‚ trenches‚ and other formations in earth’s surface. In the mantle‚ the solid metal in the core melts in the mantle which rises to the top. As the material cools as it reaches the outer mantle the plates move over for the other melted metal. The two plates move towards each other and one is sub ducted back into the mantle. This is how the plates move. The process of erosion

Rights for Great Apes I support scientists researching on and experimenting with great apes. Since scientists don’t want to jeopardize the lives of humans‚ they test on apes. If they were not testing apes‚ then they would be testing other animals which other people would also fight against. Scientists perform tests on these apes for one very important reason‚ “98.4 percent of the DNA in chimpanzees (and 97.7 percent of the DNA in gorillas) is identical to the DNA of human beings.” This proves
