What were the major lines of evidence for continental drift as presented by Wegener in the early 20th
century? What will be an ideal response?
The glaciations on the Gondwana continents could only have occurred if the continents were joined,
since the centers of the glaciers would have been in the ocean if they were not. Also, the continents,
such as South America and Africa, match like a jigsaw puzzle. Fossil plant and animals are separated
by oceans, when the organisms must have lived in adjacent regions when they were alive. Finally,
similar rock sequences and mountain ranges could be connected across oceans.
