Evidence for Continental Drift


As you know, Alfred Wegener came up with the theory of continental drift based on evidence he had gathered from different scientific fields. His idea was that all of the continents were once one large landmass and have since moved apart. His evidence came from land features, fossils and climate changes. Since Wegener's time scientists have found a lot more evidence that the continents have moved. Research continental drift and find at least 2 specific examples of evidence that the continents have moved.
