why do fossils of sea creatures get found near the top of mount everest
I need help asap
Answer: This is not my answer. Make sure to rewrite it.
Explanation:
The fossils of sea creatures could have reached the top of Mount Everest due to the continental drift theory suggested by geophysicist, Alfred Wegener. To exaggerate, a piece of evidence that supports Wegener’s hypothesis towards a continental drift is the fact that fossils of sea creatures can’t just end up in any random place like Mount Everest. He suggests that there must be something behind this and gradually it led to his well-known theory. His hypothesis towards a continental drift suggests that his second observation was that fossils of the same prehistoric species were found in different continents that were way apart. There was just no way that all the organisms could cross the oceans and reach all of these places.

which is a current intraregional migration trend in the united states?
Answer:
Initially, internal migrations in many countries (Russia, USA, Canada) were associated with the colonization of vacant or sparsely populated countries. With their exhaustion, such migrations have lost their former scope and significance. However, in a large number of developing countries (China, Indonesia), the role of migration within the district, which is associated with the development of huge, hitherto sparsely populated territories, is still large.

Answer:
Ang heograpiya (Kastila, Portuges: geografia, Ingles: geography) (mula sa Griyego γεωγραφία, geographia, literal na kahulugan: "paglalarawan sa daigdig"[1]) ay isang larangan ng agham na pinag-aaralan ang mga lupain, katangian, naninirahan, at hindi karaniwang bagay sa Daigdig.[2] Ang unang tao na gumamit ng salitang Griyego na γεωγραφία ay si Eratosthenes (276–194 BC).[3] Sinasakop ng heograpiya ang lahat ng disiplina na sinisikap na unawain ang Daigdig at mga tao nito pati na rin ang likas pagkakumplikado nito.
