Question

In your own words, explain the scientific evidence that supports the continental drift theory. Please Help! Space and science.

Answer 1

The continental drift is a geological theory according to which the continents would move with respect to one another. It was introduced, in its modern version, in 1912 by Alfred Wegener, who was the first to present the evidence of the phenomenon and a coherent explanation of its causes in an organic formulation. In modern science the theory of continental drift is replaced by the more general theory of plate tectonics.
