Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Wegener's suggestions of how the continents moved were problematic. He suggested that gravitational forces of the Moon and Sun were capable of gradually moving the continents and that larger and sturdier continents broke through thinner oceanic crust, much as icebreakers cut through ice.
