In 1965, a Canadian geophysicist, John Tuzo Wilson, combined the continental drift and seafloor spreading theories to propose the idea of plate tectonics. Plate tectonics has provided a theory that explains the processes that shape the face of the Earth.

In 1915, Alfred Wegener proposed his continental drift theory. He explained that the continents floated across the Earth atop the mantle. His theory wasn't accepted by scientists initially, but eventually, topography, seafloor spreading, continental drift, and other evidence proved his theory.

The German scientist took close looks at fossil, rock, and glacier records, observing similar records on separated landmasses. He introduced a theory of a single landmass, called Pangaea, with all of the present-day continents combined.
