Answers
Answer:
The plains called by the deposition of loess are called loess plains.
The deepest ocean trench is the Mariana Trench.
Theory of continental drift was proposed by Alfred Wegener .
Explanation:
Loess plains:
- Although glaciers can also develop loess, wind is the primary cause of its formation. Loess can develop when glaciers pulverise rocks into a fine powder.
- The powder is carried by streams to the glacier's terminus. The sediment turns into loess.
- While fine dust carried beyond the deserts creates loess plains. In the deserts' neighbouring countries, loess plains develop.
The Mariana Trench:
- The Mariana Trench, also known as the Marianas Trench, is the deepest oceanic trench on Earth and is situated in the western Pacific Ocean about 200 kilometers east of the Mariana Islands.
Alfred Wegener :
- German climatologist, geologist, geophysicist, meteorologist, and polar researcher Alfred Lothar Wegener.
- He described his idea of continental drift in his 1915 publication, "The Origin of Continents and Oceans." Wegener took part in four Greenland missions.
- The scientist Alfred Wegener is most closely connected with the concept of continental drift.
