the continents fit together like a puzzle
The three pieces of evidence used to support the idea of Pangea include the shape of the continents, fossil records, and geographical markers. Pangea was the single land mass which broken into numerous pieces to create the Earth as it is today.
the flora and fauna found in the continents the shape of the Africa continent and the American continent the continued separation of the continents
There are truly only two pieces of evidence that supports this, although they are huge:The continents fit together, like a puzzleThere are species of plants and animals with slight alterations (due to adapting to different environments) present in contrasting continents and were not placed there by humans or spread by other animals (such as birds)
Probably the first evidence was that the coastlines of Africa and South America seem to match up like puzzle pieces, and landscape features on the two continents also match.

Alfred Wegener used various pieces of evidence to support his theory of continental drift, including the fit of the continents, rock and fossil similarities across continents, glacial evidence, and similar geological features on different continents.

Measurable evidence that continents are moving relative to each other are the west coast of California and Hawaii.
There are two main pieces of evidence: Animal and plant species are present on separated continents. The continents fit together like a puzzle.

The existence in the fossil record of the same land species on several continents. Since these animals are not seafaring then the continents must have been connected at one time. Also continental drift is supported by vast empirical evidence.
Well I know 4 Rock evidence mountain belt evidence fossil evidence puzzle piece evidence Hope it helped.......
There are truly only two: 1. The continents fit together like a puzzle 2. There are animal and plant species (extinct or extant) present on separated continents
no
Fossil evidence of similar species on separate continents. Geological evidence of matching rock formations and mountain ranges on different continents. Paleoclimatic evidence of past climates that align when continents are placed together. Oceanic ridges and trenches suggesting seafloor spreading. Geographic fit of the continents like a jigsaw puzzle.
