Question

Study the figure on the right and complete the analogy:

Continents : SIAL :: ______ : SIMA

Options

• Mountains tops

• Ocean floor

• Plains

• Volcanoes

Answer 1

Continents : SIAL :: Ocean floor : SIMA

Explanation:

The analogy is comparing the relationship between Continents and SIAL, which forms the continental crust, with SIMA, which forms the oceanic crust. SIMA is the layer found primarily beneath the ocean floor, as it is denser than SIAL and is responsible for forming the oceanic crust. Therefore, the correct answer is Ocean floor.
