Yes, because he found fossils from a fresh water lizard, in two different continents separated by salt water.
There have been many fossils of intermediate types discovered that provide strong support for the theory of common descent.
There is strong support for the theory of evolution due to fossils that have been found by archeologists. The fossil records show evidence of evolution over billions of years.
they though he was crazy and became his critics
Biogeography is the study of the distribution of species (biology) spatially (geography) and temporally (history). Biogeography aims to reveal where organisms live, at what abundance, and why they are or are no) found in a certain geographical area. Biogeography does not support the theory of evolution any more then when (history) you (biology) moved into your house (geography).
Louis pasteur was the one to support th theory of biogenesis.
Fossils support his hypothesis.
yes it does.
why did other scientist not accpet Alfred Wegeners theory
fossils
He used fossils,climate changes,and landforms to support his theory.

It is not so much the climate, but it is the tectonic plates movement, and fossils of extincted animals on different continents that support this theory. Also, fossils support the theory of evolution that was proven by Charles Darwin.

He used evidence from landform, climate, and fossils to support his theory of the continental drift.
Fossils are not used to oppose the theory of evolution. They acutually support it in every way. So far not one fossil has been found that is not exactly where you would expect it to be if evolution were true. As we dig deeper we go further back in time and see by piecing fossils together how organisms evolved over time. Although we don't need fossils to support the fact that evolution is happening, it's a nice bonus to have in support of the theory.
