yes because i looked at a map and tried to put the continents back together with my brain and they fit perfect and Albert Wagner had clues there was the same climates the same land formations and the same fossils that is why i think his theory is correct
No, not until later was this theory proven and supplemented by the theory of plate tectonics.
True. Alfred Wegener, the scientist who proposed the theory of continental drift, used the distribution of fossils of tropical plants across continents as evidence to support his idea that the continents were once connected. This was one of the key pieces of evidence Wegener used to support his theory.

Albert Wegener is a scientist who discovered that the continents move, to form a super continent pangea. His findings weren't proven until after his death.
True. Alfred Wegener, a German scientist, proposed the theory of continental drift in the early 20th century. As part of his research, he also studied past climate changes and their correlation with movements of continents.
It is the Continental Drift theory, whereby the landmasses of the world today were together and are slowly drifting apart The theory was proposed by Alfred Wegener.

No, Alfred Wegener provided evidence from continental drift and fossil distribution to support his theory of plate tectonics, not a shrinking Earth. Wegener's theory suggested that the continents were once connected in a single landmass (Pangaea) and drifted apart over time due to the movement of tectonic plates.

Now we have sonar, seismic waves, and much more technology to support Wegener's theory.
