Theory of Continental Drift The seven continents used to be one giant continent named Pangea. They spread apart and became what the continents are today. The shapes of the continents line up‚ the fossils line up with how the continents‚ the rock formations on both sides of the Atlantic line up with the fossils and coastlines‚ and climatic evidence proves the Theory of Continental Drift. The first piece of evidence for Continental Drift is the shapes of the continents. All of the continents fit

Continental Movement Essay Continental Drift is the idea that refers to the movement of Earth’s continents and plates relative to each other. This means that the earth’s plates move because of the unending cycle of cooling and raising of molten rock‚ adding new material t0 the edges of the plates. This movement is called divergent movement‚ the most common of the three types of movement between plates. The other two movements are called convergent and transform-fault. This idea was first

Jun 2014 SCI101-1402B-07 Continental Drift Abstract The Earth is formed by plate tectonics continuously shifting causing a continental drift. This theory is more accepted than when it was originally published due to better technology providing better research and evidence. This paper discusses a little on both the plate tectonics and the continental drift as well as how the scientific method helped understand this process better. key words: Continental Drift‚ Scientific Theory‚ Plate

Continental Drift Were the continents of this planet always situated the way they are today? Could there have been one supercontinent that over time broke off into the continents we know now? Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines Pangaea as a hypothetical land area believed to have once connected the landmasses of the southern hemisphere with those of the northern hemisphere (Definition of Pangaea). This theory‚ discovered by Alfred Wegener‚ was known as the drift theory. Wegener used the fit of the

Continental drift is the movement of the Earth ’s continents relative to each other. The hypothesis that continents ’drift ’ was first put forward by Abraham Ortelius in 1596 and was fully developed by Alfred Wegener in 1912. However‚ it was not until the development of the theory of plate tectonics in the 1960s‚ that a sufficientgeological explanation of that movement was found. |Contents | | [hide] | |1 History

Tectonics and Continental Drift Past and Present Locations Abstract When we look at our earth’s surface now it has seven continents‚ and five of them are divided by the oceans that surround them. In 1912 Alfred Wegner (1880-1930)‚ came up with a theory called the continental drift; stating that over three hundred years ago all seven continents were once one super continent called Pangaea. Wegner tried to convince other scientists and geologist for many years that the continents
