The fossils, animals, plants, and same type of stuff that is found both on one continent, and on a completely different continent. For example, a 'fern' is found on South America that is the same 'fern' on an edge of Europe. This suggests that these two continents were once connected. *fern is made up.

Lets use the Atlantic as an example. The Coastlines of South America and Africa fit closely,have the same rocks with same age,similar fossil record,and todays flora and fauna are similar with common anscesters. the mid Atlantic ridge also follows the same shape.Evidence is also found in the orientation and age of magnetic minerals such as magnetite. With today's technology , the movement is measurable.
