Question

in wegener’s view, what caused mountain ranges to form?
○ volcanoes
○ earth shrinking
○ meteorite impacts
○ continents colliding

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Wegener's theory of continental drift proposed that mountain ranges form when continents collide. Volcanoes form mountains but not major mountain ranges in his view. Earth shrinking was an old, discredited idea. Meteorite impacts aren't related to his view on mountain range formation. So the correct reason is continents colliding.

Answer:

D. continents colliding (Note: Assuming the options are labeled A - D as is common, with A: volcanoes, B: Earth shrinking, C: meteorite impacts, D: continents colliding)
