god knows
It was found in Africa, Australia, India, South America, and Antarctica. All of these regions once were connected and had similar climates. And all of these landforms have a similar section of when they were connected
The fossilized reptile found in South America and Africa that provided evidence for continental drift is called Mesosaurus. Mesosaurus was a freshwater reptile that lived about 300 million years ago and its presence on both continents suggested that they were once connected. This finding supported the theory of continental drift proposed by Alfred Wegener.
Yes, fossils and rocks support the hypothesis of continental drift. Matching plant and animal fossils found on different continents suggest they were once part of the same landmass. Rocks with similar ages and compositions found across continents also provide evidence for the movement of these landmasses over time.
I think that continetal drift replaced his theory
The continental drift theory was replaced by the theory of plate tectonics.
because it is one of the facts that prove the theries of continental drift and Pangaea
Glossopteris
The name of the floral fossils Wegner used for the idea of continental drift was glossopteris. Alfred Wegner used the continental drift as a way to explain the continental shapes.
The presence of the fossil fern Glossopteris supported Wegener's hypothesis of continental drift. Glossopteris fossils were found on multiple continents that are now widely separated, indicating that these landmasses were once connected and later drifted apart.
Wegener used the presence of Glossopteris fossils, a type of fern-like plant, to support his idea of continental drift. These fossils were found across multiple continents that currently have widely separated coastlines, suggesting they were once part of a single landmass.

Fossils of similar plants and animals found on separate continents, such as the Mesosaurus and Glossopteris, provide evidence for continental drift. Additionally, matching geological formations and mountain ranges on different continents support the theory of continental drift. Magnetic striping on the ocean floor also supports the movement of continents over time.
Name a fossil that was found on different continents and was used to support the theory of continental drift.
The discovery of Glossopteris supports Wegner's continental drift by sowing that the continents were once put together but drifted apart over time. This is how Glossopteris was found on 5 different continents.
Alfred Has Been Working On The Contintal Drift For A Long Time And Scientist Are Stilll Trying To Prove The Continental Drift. So The Continental Drift Is His First Discovery...,(:.!? --- Jocelyn !!
There was no evidence to prove it
it can be used as evidence because they are old and moved from one place to another by the power of the ocean.
