Is it true that Alfred wegner provided evidence from landforms and climate in support of his theory of the shrinking earth?
true
What type of information Alfred wegner use on his theory?
He used evidence from landform, climate, and fossils to support his theory of the continental drift.
Does fossil evidence support wegner's theory?
yes
How did wegner use climate evidence to support his evidence?
In Africa there are scratch marks that could only have been caused by glaciers but Africa is by a hot place by the equate so once it was colder there
Did Alfred Wegner provide evidence from land forms and climate in support of his theory of the shrinking Earth?
Alfred Wegner developed the theory of plate tectonics, not a theory of a shrinking Earth. The Earth is not shrinking and no scientific theory has ever proposed that it is.
What evidence from warm climate zones did Wegner use to form his theory of continental drift?
Tropic plants in Greenland.
How do you know about continental drift?
Wegner developed this theory not only because many continents appear to fit together like a jigsaw, but also because he had fossil and climate evidence to support the fact that the continents once fit together.

That is what I would like to know,please. :)) I need this answer {ASAP.}

What are three pieces of evidence that scientists use to support the theory of the continental drift?
The 3 pieces of evidence is: 1. fossils 2. climate 3. glaciers Wegner found out that the same fossils were found on a different continent. There was this tropical plant (i forgot whats it called) was found at a icy cold region so then the plant couldn't grow there only by continental drift. The glaciers have scratches on them which was one of the evidence. I hope this really helped :D
One kind of evidence that supports wegner's hypothesis is that?
major rivers on different continents match
