Final answer:
Magnetic Striping was a key piece of evidence supporting the theory of Plate Tectonics instead of Continental Drift.
Step-by-step explanation:
Magnetic Striping was a key piece of evidence proving Wegner's ideas correct, only now it was called Plate Tectonics instead of Continental Drift. Magnetic striping refers to the alternating bands of normal and reversed polarity found on the ocean floor. These stripes provided evidence for seafloor spreading and the movement of tectonic plates.
