Which film was about rourke's drift?
Zulu is the film you are trying to think of.
Who proposed the theory of continental drift when?
Alfred Wegener proposed it. He noticed similarities in fossils in places like Western Africa and Eastern South America. Then, he noted that those two continents could fit together, like puzzle pieces. He proposed that they used to be joined, and although his theory was not taken seriously at first, we now know he was correct.
What is it called when granite makes up the continental crust?
I think granite is continental crust
What do people think caused the tangshan earthquake other than plate tetonics?
explosion
What caused the South Thailand insurgency?
i think the cause of the insurgency in south Thailand is because of the Muslim in the south and they want to be independence from thai govenment
What do scientist think now might be possible cause of continental drift?
They think a possible cause of continental drift is because of seafloor spreading and the water currents below the continents. +++ You are sort of on the right track, but not near enough to have helped the 9 people Answers had already counted! Sea-floor spreading is part of continental drift, and the currents are not in water, but in the viscous rock Mantle.
What theory replaced Wegener's hypothesis of continental drift?
I think that continetal drift replaced his theory
What did wegener think had happened to his super continent?
Wegener proposed the theory of Pangea (the supercontinent) and continental drift. Continental drift is what split Pangea apart.
How many years did wegner figure out about continental drift?
I think about 2 years
What do scientist now think might be a possible cause of the of continental drift?
They now think that the continents are moving because of tectonic plates and how they move, or drift, apart.
Why was Wegner's hypothesis of continental drift not widely accepted at the time it was proposed What do scientists now think might be a possible cause of continental drift?
Wegener's hypothesis of continental drift was not widely accepted during his time because he could not provide a convincing mechanism for how continents could move across the Earth's surface. His ideas contradicted the prevailing geological theories, and many scientists were skeptical of his lack of evidence for a force driving the drift. Today, scientists understand that continental drift is driven by plate tectonics, where the movement of tectonic plates is caused by convection currents in the Earth's mantle. This mechanism provides a clear explanation for the movement of continents over geological time.
What do scientist now think might be a possible cause of continental drifth?
Scientists now believe that the movement of tectonic plates caused by mantle convection could be a possible cause of continental drift. This phenomenon describes how the Earth's crust is broken into large plates that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them, causing them to slowly move and shift over time. This movement can result in the continents drifting apart or coming together.
What was Wegener hypothesis of continental drift not widely accepted at the time it was proposed what do scientists now think might be a possible cause of continental drift?
Because he was trying to get everybody to listen to him but they didnt want to you welcome i just answered the question for ya;; lol $hit

The continental drift hypothesis was rejected because?
the mechanism for continental drift was not well understood at the time, and there was no evidence to support the idea of continents moving. It wasn't until the theory of plate tectonics was developed that the idea of continental drift became widely accepted.
What do some scientist think cause quasars?
Some scientist think that quasars may be caused by black holes, but they are not sure how this happens. Please dont copy. Use your own words! - Anonymous <3
What did Alfred Wegener think caused the continents to drift apart?
Alfred Wegener proposed the theory of continental drift, suggesting that the continents were once part of a supercontinent called Pangaea that broke apart and drifted to their current positions due to the movement of the Earth's tectonic plates. He suggested that the continents "plowed" through the oceanic crust as they moved.
