Similar fossils on several continents supports the theory of continental drift. The same animal fossils, or similar ones have been found on many continents supporting the Pangea theory.
Yes, the presence of the same organisms on multiple continents suggests that at some point in the past, those continents were connected. This supports the theory of continental drift, which explains how landmasses have moved over time. The distribution of these similar organisms across different continents provides additional evidence for this theory.
The continents of Africa and South America are often used as evidence for the continental puzzle due to their matching coastlines and geological features, suggesting they were once connected. This supports the theory of continental drift and plate tectonics.
One main evidence is the fit of the continents' coastlines, particularly the fit of South America and Africa. Fossil evidence of similar species found on different continents also supports the idea of continental drift. Additionally, the matching geological features and rock formations across continents provide further evidence for the theory of continental drift.
Evidence for the continents being joined together in a supercontinent, called Pangaea, includes similar fossil and rock formations found on different continents, the alignment of mountain ranges and geological structures when continents are pieced together like a jigsaw puzzle, and matching coastlines and continental shelves that fit together like a puzzle. Additionally, evidence from paleoclimatology, the study of past climates, supports the theory of continental drift.
The evidence for the theory of continental drift comes from several sources, including the fit of the continents like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, similarities in rock formations and fossils across different continents, and matching geological features such as mountain ranges. Additionally, paleoclimatic evidence, like the presence of glacial deposits in regions that are now near the equator, supports the idea that the continents were once joined in a supercontinent called Pangaea.
One piece of evidence supporting the theory of continental drift is the fit of continents, such as the matching coastlines of South America and Africa. Another piece of evidence is the distribution of similar fossils and rock formations on different continents, suggesting they were once connected. Additionally, the alignment of mountain ranges and geological structures across continents supports the idea of past continental unity.

Continental drift is a hypothesis so there is no actual proof or evidence of it, but rather opinions and views suggesting the possibility of it.
It supports the theory because it can be found on all of the continents.
Your prediction is what supports your hypothesis.
Fosssils of the same organism found on different continents support the theory of continental drift. Continents that are now separated by large oceans were once part of a single large continent.
The evidence that supports wegeners hypothesis is the fossil evidence
supports hypothesis that species have changed over time.
A scientist (can't remember his name) took pictures or models of the continents and put them together and they fit like a puzzle, so that's where continental drift came from,
If the conclusion you draw from the data supports your hypothesis.
