The theory of continental drift is primarily supported by evidence such as the fit of continental Coastlines, fossil correlations across continents, and geological similarities. However, it is not supported by the idea that continents are fixed in place, as this contradicts the core concept of continental drift, which posits that continents move over geological time. Additionally, the lack of a mechanism for how continents could drift was a significant challenge to the theory before the development of plate tectonics.
The continental drift theory was replaced by the theory of plate tectonics.
I think that continetal drift replaced his theory
Another name for the Continental Drift theory is "Plate Tectonics." This theory explains the movement of Earth's lithosphere plates over the asthenosphere.
The theory of continental drift.
Two things that supports the continental drift theory are; 1. Fossil. 2. Continent Shapes.
Wagner has a theory on continental drift and the evidence that did not support it is where we see the continental drift in examining species of animal and human life drifting from continent to continent without the aid of mechanical devices or some form of trasportation except for by their own feet and them being the drifters of the continents.
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.

The main theory on the continental divide is that they relate to the plate techonics theory of the Earth's crust. The other theory is the continental drift theory where lighter rocks float on heavier crustal material.

No, only Continental Drift Theory.
the Continental Drift Theory is the slow movement of the Earths continents. A.K.A the continents drift
the age of the rocks in the sea floor is all the same
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 main problem with Wegners theory of continental drift was that at the time he proposed it he had no real proof.
