3. Alfred Wegener in 1912

4. First proposed that 200 million years ago the Earth only had one giant continent. First proposed that 200 million years ago the Earth only had one giant continent.

6. Wegener believed today’s continents broke apart and drifted into their current locations.

7. Wegener supported his theory in six ways Wegener supported his theory in six ways:

8. #1. First he used the fit of the continents.

9. The bulge of Africa fits the shape of the coast of No. America while Brazil fits along the coast of Africa.

10. #2. The size of the Himalayans indicate a huge collision. Wegener believes this was caused by the collision between India and Asia.

13. #3. He discovered identical fossil species on several different continents.

14. He knew that it was physically impossible for most of these organisms to have traveled or have been transported across the vast ocean.

16. #4. Found broad belts of rocks in Africa and South America that are the same type which is rare.

17. #5 Also the Mountain Ranges of the Appalachian (No. Amer.) and the Caledonian (Europe) match up.

19. #6. Marks left by glaciers on rocks in Africa, India, South America and Australia make no sense, unless these continents were joined and arrayed around the South Pole.

22. Wegener’s Continental Drift theory was not readily accepted by the science community of his day because he could not explain how the continents were moving.
