Alfred Wegener (pronounced vay-guh-nur) first proposed the theory of plate tectonics.
Alfred Wegener, a German meteorologist and geophysicist, is responsible for proposing the theory of continental drift in the early 20th century. His theory suggested that Earth's continents were once all connected as one supercontinent called Pangaea and have since drifted apart.
Alfred Wegener introduced the theory of continental drift, which proposed that Earth's continents were once joined together as a single supercontinent called Pangea and have since moved to their current positions. This theory laid the foundation for the development of the modern theory of plate tectonics.
The idea of continental drift has been subsumed by the theory of plate tectonics.
Continental Drift is causing the continents to move around.
The theory that the continents were once joined and then slowly drifted apart is called "continental drift." This theory was proposed by Alfred Wegener in the early 20th century and later developed into the theory of plate tectonics.
no, Alfred Wegener is the man responsible for this theory.
I think that continetal drift replaced his theory
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.
A German scientist Alfred Wegener first proposed the idea of Continental Drift.
The continental drift theory was replaced by the theory of plate tectonics.
the Continental Drift Theory is the slow movement of the Earths continents. A.K.A the continents drift

No, only Continental Drift Theory.
Continental Drift
continental drift is caused by plate tectonics
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.
The main problem with Wegners theory of continental drift was that at the time he proposed it he had no real proof.
