Alfred Wegener's hypothesis of continental drift not taken seriously
an absence of fossil evidence
Because Katie beaver said so bitchhh
he theorized about the continental drift and he also said that a pangaea formed 200 million years ago
Because identical fossils were found on two continents far apart, it suggested that at one time the two landmasses were joined together. In other cases of lands separated by far less distance, plants did not propagate across the divide.
Because Continental drift is when the continents drift apart because they hate each other.
His evidence was incorrect.
dont ask me freak
evidence supporting the idea of sea-floor spreading.
plate tectonics
The evidence that supports wegeners hypothesis is the fossil evidence
Fossils support his hypothesis.
One day while scientists were exploring the sea floor, they discovered sea-floor spreading, thus proving Wegener's hypothesis to be correct.
Although it seemed to make a lot of sense, there was no known proof of HOW the continents would drift. It wasn't until years later that we gained knowledge of plate tectonics, which bolstered Wegener's hypothesis.
yes it does.
The scientific means for proving his hypothesis had not yet been developed.
The continental Coastlines fit together like puzzle pieces, fossils, and glacier Grover in warm places
