J. Tuzo Wilson proposed the theory of plate tectonics, which suggests that the Earth's lithosphere is divided into segments called plates that move relative to each other. He believed that the movement of these plates is driven by processes like seafloor spreading and subduction, leading to the shifting of continents over millions of years.

What were the names of the continent after Pangaea split into two?
The names of the continents after Pangaea split into two were Laurasia in the north and Gondwana in the south. Over time, these continents further broke apart into the continents we know today.
How many continents can fit into Africa?
nealry all continents can fir into africa!=i think=
How did Wagner think the continents moved?
Wagner proposed the theory of continental drift, suggesting that the continents were once connected in a supercontinent called Pangaea and have since drifted apart. He believed that the continents moved through the Earth's crust, driven by forces such as convection currents in the mantle.
Why did early mapmakers think the continents were once connected?
Early mapmakers thought the continents were once connected because they observed similarities in coastlines, geological formations, and fossil records across different continents. Additionally, the concept of continental drift and the theory of plate tectonics have since provided scientific explanations for the movement of continents over time.
Why did Alfred think the continents move?
Alfred Wegener proposed the theory of continental drift because he observed similarities in the shapes of the continents, as well as the distribution of fossils and rock types across different continents. He suggested that the continents were once joined together in a single supercontinent called Pangaea, which later broke apart and drifted to their current positions.
Does jacqueline wilson think she is successful and why?

Is jacqueline wilson beautiful?
no i think shes ugly but thats just me cause i dont like the look of old peoples faces but if you do fine by me
What year were continents made?
I THINK............1600.
Why continents appear to be vertical?
I don't think they do.
How do you shift into 4X4?
I think you have to put your transmission on Neutral then shift to 4x4.
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.
Did i shift my rib or is it just bruised?
I don't think you can shift your rib so I think it's just bruised
Why do you think our plants continents look the way they do today?
The shape of the continents is mainly due to water erosion.
How do scientist think the oceans are likely to change in the future?
Along with ocean's forming is that the land mass was all those continents were connected at one time it was Pangaea.With time the Continents continued to separate.Today we know that the Continents are still moving apart from one another. We know that they move one or 10 centimeters every year. Since it moves some ocean's get bigger, but some Oceans as the Pacific Ocean gets smaller. With that i think all the continents will continue to move apart. They think that the oceans will rise, that can cause flooding and, because of the separating of the landmass there will also be earthquakes.

What is the definition of NOC shift?
NOCturnal...the night shift...they think its better than saying graveyard shift
