    4. Draw and label the internal structure of the Earth.
    5. Explain the differences between oceanic crust and continental crust.
    6. Explain why continental crust is above water and ocean crust is below water.
    2.2 The Origin and Structure of the Ocean Basins
    7. What does the theory of Continental Drift suggest?
    8. What early evidence supported the theory of Continental Drift?
