4 Evidences In Continental Drift Theory
4 evidences in continental drift theory
Good Day...
Continental drift theory states that the continents were once connected before.
Evidences of Continental Drift theory:
Continental Jigsaw Puzzle
- The edge of one continent surprisingly matches the edge of other continents as if they are connected before.
Fossils Evidences
- Fossils of Mesosaurus and Lystosauros which were discovered in different continents, such as South America and Africa and it is very impossible for these reptiles to swim from South America to Africa.
Evidence From Rock
- Rocks formation in Africa line up with that in South America as if it was long mountain ranges.
Coal Deposits
- Coal beds found in different continents including Antarctica. Antarctica now cannot sustain substantial amount of life which means Antarctica before was not situated in the current location today, maybe it was located somewhere else where life is possible.
Hope it helps....=)
