At the time when this theory was a-brewing, it was difficult to provide conclusive data and evidence.
Alfred Weneger, who was a German scientist somewhere in the 1930s. Other scientists didn't believe his theories at first, but about twenty years later, his theories appeared to be true.
I have the same question on my science homework and I put that it says that the theory states that the continents are formed by plates pushing against each other and that the continents constantly change their positions.I'm mot sure I answered your question but I hope I helped. XD
A man named Alfred Wegener first presented the theory of plate tectonics, but had no proof, so other scientists laughed at him. later, Arthur Holmes decided that it wasn't such a laughing matter, due to the theory of convection currents in the mantle. so Alfred Wegener first presented it, but Arthur Holmes proved it. hope this helps.
Plate tectonics is the theory that the landmasses on the earth's surface move. The pieces of the earth's surface sit on liquid rock beneath it, which causes these plates to move away or toward each other.
Plate tectonics
Geophysicists, Seismologists, Geomorphologists and Palaeontologists are some examples of scientists who's work involves or is affected by the theory of plate tectonics.
capriologists they study the whole world space, the layers everything so they would find theory of plate tectonics useful
But plate tectonics is the theory which suggests that the Earth's crust is made up of solid plates moving relative to each other. Plate tectonics and the plate tectonics theory aren't really two separate things. However plates are pieces of the Earth's crust which are moving.
Despite what Creationist would have you believe (when debating other topics) theory does not mean hypothesis or speculation. In science, a theory is an explanation of the natural world that is well-substantiated by evidence. This includes a number of explanations that are so well-substantiated by evidence that there is virtually no doubt among scientists that it is the correct explanation. These include the theory of plate tectonics, the thoery of evolution, atomic theory, and germ theory.

The theory of plate tectonics.
Yes. Plate tectonics is part of the current principal theory that seems to explain the formation of geologic faults, rifts, earthquakes, sea floor spreading, and even some diversification of species, among other phenomena.
Plate tectonics (This is the mechanism), the theory is continental drift.
The theory is that the tectonic plates have faults and are colliding, moving away, or going by each other. ~Toria, 12
why did other scientist not accpet Alfred Wegeners theory
