What do scientist think caused Continental drift?
Sea-floor spreading
When you right continental drift does it have to be capitalized?
No, only Continental Drift Theory.
A short paragraph about continental drift?
First of all continental drift happened after Pangea. Pangea was a time when all of the continents were formed together. Then platetectonics moved which caused earth quakes. The earth quakes made the continents drift, and is called continental drift. To learn more on continental drifts and plate tectonics visit http;//www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0001765.html
Why is the continental drift theory a theory and not a scientific law?
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.
What are the driving forces of continental drift?
The driving Forces of Continental drift are both gravity and the motion of the underground Tectonic Plates.
How is theory of plate tectonics similar to the continental drift?
continental drift is caused by plate tectonics
Continental drift is caused by?
plate tectonics
What does the continental drift cause?
it is caused by conviction
What caused pangaea to separte?
Continental Drift caused pangaea to seperate.
Explain what force caused the movement of the continents from one super-continent to their present positions?
Continental drift :)
What do scientist think caused Continental drift?
Sea-floor spreading
What is the very slow movement of the continents is called?
Continental Drift
What force caused the movement of the continents from one super-continents to their present position?
Continental drift :)
What evidence caused Alfred Wegener to develop his hypothesis of continental drift?
One of His Theorys of continental drift was, that you could fit the continents back together if you had pictures. Also it would make up Pangea
Can a cyclone create continental drift?
No; continental drift is a geological process.
When you right continental drift does it have to be capitalized?
No, only Continental Drift Theory.
Pangea and continental drift?
Pangaea was a supercontinent that existed about 300 million years ago and eventually fragmented into the continents we know today due to the process of continental drift. Continental drift is the theory that suggests the Earth's continents move slowly over time due to the motion of tectonic plates in the Earth's crust. This movement has caused the continents to drift apart, leading to the formation of the current continental configuration.
