Explanation / Answer

1) Evolution, Plate tectonics

Evolution is regarded as the greatest unifying theory in biology as it explains the similarities and differences that occur in all living creatures.

Plate tectonics(movement of lithospheric plates) is the unifying theory of geology

5) atoms

When atoms combine they produce molecules .

Example: When two hydrogen atoms combine a H2 molecule is formed.

6) neutrons, protons
