As he believes that the continents used to be one giant continent, but overtime they were being separated and which is why we have the 7 continents that we know. Wegener had 4 reasons that helped explain his theory. The apparent fit of the continents, Same aged and type of fossils being found in different continents, rocks types and mountain ranges and structure, and the found to be climates being same/similar in different continents.]]> 2022-09-01 06:43:05 UTC https://padlet.com/livelytopicsystems/omdor0cm5jkqpfvi/wish/2278883855 https://padlet.com/livelytopicsystems/omdor0cm5jkqpfvi/wish/2278884821 The theory of continental drift was discovered by Alfred Wegener, a Scientist. Before the continental drift, it was called Pangaea. To explain this theory, Pangaea was when all the land masses are together. There are four pieces of evidence:
1. Shape (continents fit together like South America and South Africa) 
2. Fossils that are alike but located on different continents that is not possible for them to cross the ocean.
3. Rocks and Mountains correlation (same type or same form) 
4.

There are more continents now and this may be because of the motion of the tectonic plates like South America and Africa, these continents look like they could fit like a puzzle which is a big suspicion already. Furthermore, there are also pieces of evidence that back up the theory like fossils of animals that are the same being but in different places that are separated and the ancient animal lived in the seawater not salty ocean so that is big evidence. There is also the paleoclimate which is also big evidence that indicates that there used to be a big supergiant continent. There is also evidence of rock types that are also evidence of continental drift.]]> 2022-09-01 06:44:20 UTC https://padlet.com/livelytopicsystems/omdor0cm5jkqpfvi/wish/2278885428 https://padlet.com/livelytopicsystems/omdor0cm5jkqpfvi/wish/2278888322 I think the theory of continental drift is the way continent named Pangea broke apart from each other into difference locations.

Continental drift is basically continents being carried away from one place to another. It was only one continent long time ago which was called he Pangea, but after that Continents started drifting away which we have 7 continents. There was a German geologist who thought the shape of South America and Africa can fit like a puzzle which his name was Alfred Wegener. So he started to do some research about 4 things.  The first thing was about the shape, second the fossil correlation, third is the rock correlation and last but not the least, past climate. The research Alfred did is that, Fossils of Mesosaurus was found in South America, as well as the southern Africa. How could the same type of living thing could be there at the same time, but different location? But if South America and Africa was connected, it is possible. And so, Alfred found different evidence based on different things. ]]> 2022-09-01 06:47:56 UTC https://padlet.com/livelytopicsystems/omdor0cm5jkqpfvi/wish/2278890024 https://padlet.com/livelytopicsystems/omdor0cm5jkqpfvi/wish/2278891675 In my words, I think that continental drift is a theory where all land on earth used to be a giant supercontinent but somehow got separated and drifted apart somehow. There are 4 pieces of evidence of continental drift that were discovered by Alfred Weigner. Evidence 1: The fossils of the same species in 2 different places. Alfred found the remains of dinosaurs that lived in freshwater in 2 places that are separated from one another. Knowing that they lived in freshwater made it impossible to think that they would swim through the salty water to get to a different land. Evidence 2: Alfred Weigner researched and found that glacial marks were left behind in places that are too close to the equator to even have glaciers. This theory made it clear to him that those places used to be closer to the poles than it is today. Evidence 3: Geological marks. He found out that some places have the same mountain types and ages in 2 different places separated by the ocean. He said that the mountains could be created at the same time but in different places which would be unlikely. Evidence 4: Materials like a special type of coal that is made from plants were found throughout the entirety of the Earth, but those type of plants only thrive in hot humid areas which tells him that those places that had those special coal used to be close to the equator before it got separated. ]]> 2022-09-01 06:49:04 UTC https://padlet.com/livelytopicsystems/omdor0cm5jkqpfvi/wish/2278891675 ronchicnotchlim https://padlet.com/livelytopicsystems/omdor0cm5jkqpfvi/wish/2278891857 The theory of continental drift
There was a one continent which Wegener called, Pangea. Years ago the Pangea had started drifting which means had carried away from one another. Wegener had used fossil evidence to support his theory. It includes rocks, fossils, climate.. These pieces that had been drifted are the continent we are in today. The continents are on rocks, tectonic plates.

Furthermore, from what I know, continental drift is a theory where Alfred claimed that the continents are moving/drifting. He also claimed that millions of years ago, there is one big continent which he called Pangea. On the other hand, there are four main pieces of evidence that Alfred Wegener uses to support his theory (continental drift). Those includes:
- The apparent fit of the earth which is basically the shape of the continent together, Alfred claimed that the shape seems to fit each other. For instance, South America and Africa. 
- Fossil correlation (evidence of life). This is because in his research, Alfred noticed that there are the same types of fossils are over the world.
- Rock and mountain correlation. He claimed that the rocks and mountain were formed at the same time and place but drift to a faraway place.
- Paleoclimate data. In his research, he found that there are geological marks in different countries.
In conclusion, these are my knowledge of the continental drift theory.]]> 2022-09-01 06:58:09 UTC https://padlet.com/livelytopicsystems/omdor0cm5jkqpfvi/wish/2278902787 https://padlet.com/livelytopicsystems/omdor0cm5jkqpfvi/wish/2278903886 Continental Drift is a theory found by a meteorologist name Alfred Wegener. He created this theory because he found that our land was once a giant landmass call Pangea. In order to prove toward the scientist community, He started to research and he made 4 pieces of evidences for himself. The first evidence is that the South America and Africa can fit together like a puzzle. The second evidence is that he found the the same species of plants and animals located in many different location of South America and Africa. The third evidence is that the rocks and mountains in South America and South Africa has the same type of rock and they also have the same ages. The fourth evidence is that the left over marks of the South America and Africa.

Pangaea existed about 240 million years ago, about 200 million years ago, Pangaea began breaking up and over millions of years, it has been separated into pieces which make how the world is currently. it took around 50 years for this theory of Alfred Wegener to be accepted, one of the reasons was difficult to work out how whole continents are able to move and break. today, the theory of continental drift has been replaced by the science of "plate tectonics"]]> 2022-09-01 17:16:39 UTC https://padlet.com/livelytopicsystems/omdor0cm5jkqpfvi/wish/2279622976
