The geographic distribution of the swimming reptile Mesosaurus provides evidence that supports continental drift. Fossils belonging to the Mesosaurus were found far away from each other, in both South Africa and South America.
South america and Africa were once joined.
The fossil that was found on different continents and used to support the theory of continental drift is the Mesosaurus. This extinct freshwater reptile had limited swimming abilities, making it unlikely that it could have crossed vast oceans. Its distribution on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean provided evidence of land connections that later formed the basis for the theory of continental drift.
Inconclusive evidence...ask again later.
Swimming has been around since the caveman days concluded by evidence of pictures drawn on cave walls.
Usually swimming on its back, from what I've seen on TV and read in the National Geographic.
there is no firm evidence that Bigfoot exists so his or her swimming ability is a moot point.
In "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer," the evidence that proves Tom visited the swimming hole includes his soiled clothes, wet hair, and the knowledge he demonstrates about a corpse in the river - all of which indicate he had been at the swimming hole. Additionally, Tom's aunt also questions him directly about it, further confirming his visit.
Yes, the case of the Mesosaurus does support Wegener's theory of continental drift because Mesosaurus however were-- as stated very well, A non-pelagic freshwater species from the Permian limited to a narrow range in the south east tip of South America and South Africa. In my opinion we cannot totally rule out "Accidental" ocean going land and freshwater as examples do exist (e.g Central and South American land tortoises to and from Galapagos) but the gravity of the drift theory favors conjoint land else narrow very narrow seaways for which rafting or limited range free swimming could be a mechanism of spreading breeding populations. My point being we can not exclude the possibility of animals being able to cross minor bodies of water because we have more modern examples for which swimming or rafting on debris were plausible. Egrets are a flying example of how species may be distributed across large bodies of water and so aren't perfect evidence. Common egrets were blown over from Africa to South America late in the 1800s in a massive storm system. Through replication and migrations they have reached the Piedmont of the Carolinas , central Alabama-Georgia and western Tennessee.
That multi-celled animals exist. Without evolution we'd just be strands of RNA swimming or blowing about.
Swimming is an ancient activity that likely originated in prehistoric times, as evidence of swimming dates back to cave paintings in France, estimated to be around 10,000 years old. It has developed independently in various cultures around the world, with notable swimming practices in ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome. Today, swimming is a popular sport and recreational activity enjoyed globally, with formal competitions established in the late 19th century. The modern sport of swimming has evolved into various styles and competitive formats, governed by organizations like FINA.
Casey Anthony's daughter, Caylee, is said to have accidentally drowned in their swimming pool but their is no actual evidence to support that.
