The Continental Drift theory is a theory because there is no evidence to support it. Alfred Wegener developed the Continental Drift theory in the 1800's.
No, only Continental Drift Theory.
The theory of continental drift did originate in the 1930s. Continental drift asserts that the continents were once a single landmass called Pangaea that drifted apart over time.
Alfred Wegner originally thought of the continental drift theory, but he wasn't believed when he presented it. After his death (of course) the theory was proved.
There was no visual proof
Wegner was the man who established the theory of "continental drift" in 1912
The hypothesis you are looking for is continental drift.
this is easy! I LEARNED IT IN SCIENCE! WERGNER DICOVERED IT. WEGNERS EARLIER THEORY OF CONTINENTAL DRIFT WAS REEXAMMINED AND A NEW THEORY WAS BORN ............................ THE THEORY OF PLATE TECTONICS
Scientist rejected Wegners hypothesis of continental drift at first because he did not have enogh evidence to support his theory. He failed to provide a suitable mechanism that could cause the continents to move.
Scientists rejected Wegener's theory of continental drift initially because he did not have a plausible mechanism to explain how the continents moved. Additionally, at the time, there was insufficient evidence to support his hypothesis. It was only later, with the development of plate tectonics theory, that Wegener's idea gained widespread acceptance.
One problem with the theory of continental drift was the lack of a plausible mechanism to explain how continents could move across the Earth's surface. Additionally, there was limited geological evidence at the time to convincingly support the idea that continents had drifted apart. This led to skepticism and criticism from the scientific community.
The fundamental problem with Wegner's theory was that he couldn't explain a mechanism for the movement of plates.
I think that continetal drift replaced his theory
The Continental Drift theory is a theory because there is no evidence to support it. Alfred Wegener developed the Continental Drift theory in the 1800's.
The continental drift theory was replaced by the theory of plate tectonics.
the Continental Drift Theory is the slow movement of the Earths continents. A.K.A the continents drift
No, only Continental Drift Theory.
