States that the continents were once a single huge landmass. This landmass broke up million years ago and the pieces drifted apart.
facing edges of many continents have similar rock formations. If the continents brought togehter, the formations would match exactly (like combining South America and Africa). Fossils of the same kinds of living things have been found on different continents. Perhaps these living things were together on one landmass before it split.
Alfred Wegener's hypothesis of continental drift not taken seriously
Which type of evidence was NOT used by Alfred Wegener to support his continental drift hypothesis human remains
Because Alfred Wegener couldn't specify the mechanism responsible for the movement of the continents, the continental drift hypothesis was rejected. This theory is now accepted science.
he theorized about the continental drift and he also said that a pangaea formed 200 million years ago
Because Continental drift is when the continents drift apart because they hate each other.
His evidence was incorrect.
