What else can I help you with?
Name two types of evidence for continental drift and give examples of each type?
One type of evidence for continental drift is fossil evidence, such as plant and animal fossils that are found on separate continents but are closely related. Another type is geological evidence, including the matching of rock formations and mountain ranges on different continents, as well as the distribution of earthquakes and volcanoes along continental boundaries.

What is the name for a copy of a fossil produced by filling a mold with sediment or crystals?
A replica of a fossil produced by filling a mold with sediment or crystals is called a cast fossil. It provides a detailed three-dimensional representation of the original fossil and is often used in scientific research and educational settings.
Name a fossil that was found on different continents and was used to support the theory of continental drift?
The fossil of Mesosaurus, a small aquatic reptile, was found in both South America and Africa. Its presence on different continents was used as evidence to support the theory of continental drift, as it suggested that the continents were once connected and later drifted apart.
How did fossils contribute to the idea of continental drift?

What does Lucy have to do with Africa and science?
Lucy was not a person (if that's what your thinking), but the first fossil of the early humans (cavemen). The fossil was found in Africa and fossils have a lot to do with science. The reason why they (or the one person who found the fossil) named the fossil Lucy was probably because the fossil was a girl. But out of all the girl names why would they name it Lucy? That's their decision.
