this is easy! I LEARNED IT IN SCIENCE! WERGNER DICOVERED IT. WEGNERS EARLIER THEORY OF CONTINENTAL DRIFT WAS REEXAMMINED AND A NEW THEORY WAS BORN ............................ THE THEORY OF PLATE TECTONICS

The theory of plate tectonics explains large scale motion of the earth's lithosphere.
It isnt its the same thing-plate tectonics create the idea of continental drift.
Wegener's idea of continental drift suggested thatcontinents moved, but it did not explain many otherparts of Earth's crust. Today scientists use the theoryof plate tectonics to explain why Earth's features appearas they do.According to the theory of plate tectonics, Earth's lithosphere is broken into about 20 moving plates. The continents and the ocean floor make up the surfaces of these moving plates.
