Fossils of the glossopteris fern, which have been found across South America, Africa, India, Antarctica, and Australia. Fossil eveidence of a triassic land reiple lystrosaurus are also found across Africa, India, Antarctica and Australia.
In Africa there are scratch marks that could only have been caused by glaciers but Africa is by a hot place by the equate so once it was colder there
The Bering Strait is not between Asia and Africa. It is between Asia and America. The distance between Asia and America at the narrowest point of the Bering Strait is 51 miles (82 kilometers, 44 mmi).
South Africa is a country in the continent of Africa, therefore Africa has a larger area (about 30.2 million km²) than South Africa alone (1,221,037 km2). South Africa contributes to about 4% of the total area of Africa.

Wegener knew that fossil plants and animals such as mesosaurs, a freshwater reptile found only South America and Africa during the Permian period, could be found on many continents.
There is evidence that the continents were once close, because if you look at a map for the earth, It looks like the earth is a big puzzle. Saudi Arabia fits into Eurasia, South America can interlock with Africa, and if you moved all the little islands between US and Europe, the could slide in. As you can see, there is evidence that the continents may have been closer at one time.
1.) Continents fit together like puzzle. 2.) Mountain Ranges across oceans match up. 3.) Fossil evidence in South America and Africa show that the two continents could have been connected.
This could be Africa, Asia, and South America at least.
Depending on where you are on the continent, you could be thinking of Africa, South America or Asia.
In Africa there are scratch marks that could only have been caused by glaciers but Africa is by a hot place by the equate so once it was colder there
Africa is the only continent that straddles all four hemispheres: Northern, Southern, Eastern, and Western. This unique positioning allows Africa to have a diverse climate and geography, ranging from deserts to rainforests.
