List I (Hypothesis/Theory)
- APlanetesimal hypothesis
- BThermal contraction theory
- CGeosynclinal Orogen theory
- DHypothesis of sliding continent
List II (Propounder)
- 1Kober
- 2Chamberlin
- 3Daly
- 4Jeffreys
Code: A B C D
General KnowledgeGeography
- A2 4 1 3
- B2 1 4 3
- C3 1 4 2
- D3 4 1 2
Explanation
Chamberlin proposed the planetesimal hypothesis (A–2); Jeffreys proposed the thermal contraction theory (B–4); Kober proposed the geosynclinal orogen theory (C–1); Daly proposed the hypothesis of the sliding continent (D–3). The matching code is therefore 2, 4, 1, 3.
