To determine if the land is splitting apart or how in general are the continents changing.
yes becouse wenger is not geologist and he could not explain the how continental drift theory
Scientists use the magnetic properties of some minerals as evidence of past changes in Earth's magnetic field. These changes can provide insight into the Earth's geological history, including continental drift and past climates.

Alfred Wegener
There was no evidence to prove it
Continental Drift is causing the continents to move around.
It was Alfred Wegener but other scientists did not believe him but he found evidence
Because he didnt have enough "scientific" eviedence
Before the theory of Continental Drift was widely accepted, scientists believed in the concept of stationary continents. They thought that the continents were fixed in place and did not move over time. This idea was known as the theory of continental permanence.
Yes, scientists were using the scientific process when they rejected the continental drift theory. The process involves proposing a hypothesis, testing it through observations and experiments, and revising or rejecting it based on the evidence. In this case, scientists rejected the theory because they did not find enough supporting evidence at the time.
