One day while scientists were exploring the sea floor, they discovered sea-floor spreading, thus proving Wegener's hypothesis to be correct.
Although it seemed to make a lot of sense, there was no known proof of HOW the continents would drift. It wasn't until years later that we gained knowledge of plate tectonics, which bolstered Wegener's hypothesis.
The continental Coastlines fit together like puzzle pieces, fossils, and glacier Grover in warm places
There was a lack of technology.
because the tools were xtremely xpensive
The evidence that supports wegeners hypothesis is the fossil evidence
Fossils support his hypothesis.
His evidence was incorrect.
The scientific means for proving his hypothesis had not yet been developed.
The distribution of mountain ranges across different continents, such as the Appalachian Mountains in North America and the Caledonian Mountains in Europe, supports Wegener's idea of continental drift. These mountain ranges were once connected when the continents were part of a supercontinent, and their alignment provides evidence for the movement of land masses over time. Additionally, the presence of similar geological features and rock formations on separate continents suggests a shared history of mountain building.
mountains usually occur in narrow bands along the edges of continents
mountains usually occur in narrow bands along the edges of continents
Because Katie beaver said so bitchhh
evidence supporting the idea of sea-floor spreading.
plate tectonics
mountains usually occur in narrow bands along the edges of continents
yes because they didnt know how wegners inteligence was and they should have tried it in the firts place anyway it would have helped relize that his hypothesis waas correct when they dobt of him!
