What are 5 pieces of evidence that support the continental drift theory?
The fist reason for continental drift is that the continents fit together like a puzzle. The second reason is the that on other continents there are the same plants and animals. The third reason is that the rocks are the same on each continent. The fouth reason is that the same ice is found on other continents. The fith and final reason is that The posithion of each continent whoudn't match.
What are some things that scientists use to support the theory of the continental drift?
1. Fossils of the same plant or animal are found in different continents. 2. The shape of Africa and South America looks like they fit together. 3. The age and type of rock are the same on different continents. MORE: 4. The mountains chain seem to continue. 5. Coal from Antartica or from very cold region that used to be warmer/
How far will the tectonic plates move in 1000 years?

What are facts that proves the Pangaea existed?
Here are some pieces of evidence to prove that Pangaea did exist:1) Fossils of the same species of dinosaurs were discovered on different continents, and as these dinosaurs could not have swam across the oceans, the must have walked from one continent to another, therefore, Pangaea existed.2) The coasts of continents (e.g. the east coast of South America and the west coast of Africa) could be joined/fitted together almost nicely, like pieces of jigsaw puzzles.3) Theories of continental drift and plate tectonics (which causes earthquakes...) evidently proves that the continents drifted apart.4) The continents are still drifting apart very slowly and the oceans are still expanding up till today.5) Paleozoic glacial deposits have been found on the continents forming Gondwanaland (Africa, Antarctica, South America, Australia/Oceania) and there were glacial striations left behind on rocks in this area.6) Mountain belts/chains on different continents have quite similar rocks and structures and many more evidences suggests Pangaea existed.
How do you make Fire with naphtha quicklime and block sulfur?
1.) Mix the Sulfur (block) and Quicklimetogether.2.) Combine that mixture with combustible material (various size pieces of wood from kindling to small pieces) making a compact design.3.) Make sure that the area can get good ventilation.4.) Pour water over the entire mixture of Wood, Sulfur, & Quicklime.5.) The EXOTHERMIC reaction that then takes place "should" be hot enough to ignite the wood into a fiery mass.
