Were in the us is there evidence that continents moving relative to one another?
Measurable evidence that continents are moving relative to each other are the west coast of California and Hawaii.
Are our continents moving back into the form of pangea?
No, scientists have proved that our continents are not moving back into the form of pangea.
What evidence is there that the continents were joined together at one time?
fossils,shape of the continents
What is laurasia?
Laurasia is like Pangaea where all of the continents were put together before. This is a theory that all of the continents were once together and that there is plate tectonics. This is not evidence of plate tectonics because no one was around to see it happening. It is just a theory! But it seems very clear that it is true because the continents are moving and the continents look like a huge puzzle. For example, the west side of Africa and the east side of South America look like they fit together! If the continents are moving away from each other they must have once been together.
What evidence supports the idea that all the continents were once joined together?
There are two main pieces of evidence: Animal and plant species are present on separated continents. The continents fit together like a puzzle.
Were in the us is there evidence that continents moving relative to one another?

What evidence convinced many geologists that the continents were slowly moving?
the Continental drift....
What proof is it that the continents actually move?
Measurable evidence that continents are moving relative to each other are the west coast of California and Hawaii.
What evidence is there to prove that continents are still moving and colliding?
The fact that there are subduction zones where continental plates meet !
Are the continents moving?
The continents are moving when they spread apart
Which scientist's work provided evidence of moving continents making the continental drift theory accepted by the scientific community?
Henry Hess

What are the evidences of the movents of the continents?
The evidence that the continents are moving today is actually just a theory, but is accepted to be true. This theory is known as Continental Drift and is described as the continents belonging to tectonic plates, which are basically floating on the Earth's surface. Evidence to prove such is that the continents all fit together like a jigsaw puzzle and related or the same plant or animal species are located on separated continents, suggesting that they were all once connected to allow the animals to roam and the plants to spread. If they have moved in the past, they must still be moving today, and there are projected paths the continents are taking.
Are our continents moving back into the form of pangea?
No, scientists have proved that our continents are not moving back into the form of pangea.
What is the term used to describe the moving of the continents?
Moving
Which way are the continents moving?
All the continents are moving in different directs but if you go to google images and type 'tectonic plate movement' at least one of those pictures will show what directions different continents are moving in
What evidence is there that the continents were joined together at one time?
fossils,shape of the continents
