Written-Response Question #1 A team of geologists learned from GPS data that two continents that have an ocean between them are moving toward each other. Diego’s little brother hears this and cannot believe that continents can move and is worried that those two continents are going to run into each other. How would you explain to him what is happening?

Explanation:

To explain to Diego's brother about the two moving continent, it is pertinent to let him know that the rate at which the continents are closing in on earth other is very slow.

Most of the continents are moving at a rate of 2.5cm per year. It would take about 10yrs for them to move about 25cm which is a quarter of a meter.

The rate of growth is very small and imperceptible.
