What is conti nentaldrift?
Continental drift is the drift of continents. The earth consists of large plates floating on a ball of molten rock.

Earthquakes especially happen when two continental plates are shifting next to each other.

1) Continental Puzzle 2) Matching Fossils 3) Rock Types and Structures 4) Ancient Climates
How did fossils provide evediance for continental drift?
because Wagner was in the rock and the plated moved form one another
What technology proved continental drift?
