In the mid 20th century
kantot
There was no visual proof
I think that continetal drift replaced his theory
lol
German scientist Alfred Wegener (1880-1930) first proposed the theory of continental drift in 1912, but it was not widely accepted until the 1950s.
The Continental Drift theory is a theory because there is no evidence to support it. Alfred Wegener developed the Continental Drift theory in the 1800's.
No, not until later was this theory proven and supplemented by the theory of plate tectonics.
The continental drift theory was replaced by the theory of plate tectonics.
Before the theory of Continental Drift was widely accepted, scientists believed in the concept of stationary continents. They thought that the continents were fixed in place and did not move over time. This idea was known as the theory of continental permanence.
Many geologists and scientists at the time made fun of Alfred Wegener's Drift Theory, dismissing it as implausible and unscientific. Wegener's theory of continental drift proposed that the continents were once connected and drifted apart over time, which was not widely accepted until much later when the theory of plate tectonics was formulated.
the Continental Drift Theory is the slow movement of the Earths continents. A.K.A the continents drift
No, only Continental Drift Theory.
