glssopteris and other fossels were found on different contenents and could not swim across. also all of the contenents fit together like a. jiggsaw puzzle

How Continental drift changes earth?
continental drift can change there earth in many different ways like land forms and climates for example the Hawaiian islands were originally and under water volcano but over the years it has traveled under the crust making new land.
What is a good sentence for continental drift?
The term 'continental crust' is a compound noun, a word for therelatively thick part of the earth's crust that forms the large landmasses.

I explained to him that continental crust is land (territory).
