The+Continental+Drift+Theory

=Continental Drift and Pangea= Continental Drift is the theory, born from Alfred Wegener, that the continents were once a whole landmass. This landmass was named Pangea, meaning //entire Earth// in Ancient Greek. Over time they moved apart to the places where they are now.


 * __There was much evidence to support this hypothesis:__**

Puzzle-Piece Fit- The borders of Africa and South America seem to fit together as if they once //were// together.

Same Fossils Found- On continents far apart there were fossils that were of the same origin, even though they might not have been able to get there when they were alive. Ex: An animal that couldn't swim's remains were found on either side of an ocean showing thta the specific type somehow got from that place to the next.

Same Rocks Found- Again, on continents far apart, there were the same rocks and rock formations found on the coastlines of continents that are separated by an ocean now.
