Continental drift never stopped and continues today. It just happens so slowly, we don't notice it. An example of one thing that will happen is because the pacific plate is rotating CCW, in one million years, Los Angeles will be out in the Pacific Ocean west of San Francisco.
What else can I help you with?
When you right continental drift does it have to be capitalized?
No, only Continental Drift Theory.
Why is the continental drift theory a theory and not a scientific law?
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.
What are the driving forces of continental drift?
The driving Forces of Continental drift are both gravity and the motion of the underground Tectonic Plates.
What is the rate of continental drift?
The continental drift is still taking place.
In the 1930s the theory of continental drift was formed?
The theory of continental drift did originate in the 1930s. Continental drift asserts that the continents were once a single landmass called Pangaea that drifted apart over time.
What happens to earth during the fall?
the earth's surface as a continental drift
When does continental drift happen?
Continental drift happens over millions of years due to the slow movement of tectonic plates. The movement of these plates results in the gradual shifting of continents across the Earth's surface, leading to changes in the positions and shapes of the landmasses over time.
What happens to the Earth's surface during Fall?
the earth's surface as a continental drift
Why do scientists keep discussing the theory of plate tectonics?
Probably because it is the reason for continental drift and it can help them figure out exactly how massive the spread of Pangaea was and if it will ever happen again.
What is the very slow movement of the continents is called?
Continental Drift
What is conti nentaldrift?
Continental drift is the drift of continents. The earth consists of large plates floating on a ball of molten rock. Such a plate is called a tectonic plate, and since they float, they can float a way. This is called continental drift. Continental drift is one of the main causes of earthquakes. Earthquakes especially happen when two continental plates are shifting next to each other.
When you right continental drift does it have to be capitalized?
No, only Continental Drift Theory.
Can a cyclone create continental drift?
No; continental drift is a geological process.
What are the stages in the continental drift?
The major steps are 1) the east African rift 2) east Africa 3) west Africa
What does provide evidence for continental drift?
Is there a list? Continental drift is real, so religious fanatics don't provide evidence for continental drift.
What theory replaced Wegener's hypothesis of continental drift?
I think that continetal drift replaced his theory
What resulted in the formation of the super continent?
D) Continental drift, Pangea
