ALFRED WEGENER'S THEORY OF THE CONTINENTAL DRIFT

Alfred believed that there was such thing as the continental drift meaning that the earths conteninents moved which explained why the earths pieces can connect with each other

When you look on a map, Alred discovered that the contenints would connect with eachother just like puzzle pieces. Amd when he connected them all together it was called pangea

A piece of evidence is that there were things such as "rock layers" which sere layed down over the hundred million years, explaining how the earths crust could possibly move that way

The last piece of evidence that supports the theory of alfred was because of the fossils. Many dinasour fossils were found beneath the earths crust supporting the fact the alfred thought these fossils where once in a certain country or area but because the contenints moved, the fossils ended up somewhere completely different.
