Question

In the early 1900s Alfred Wegener proposed the continents were “drifting.” The scientific community did not support his theory due to a lack of scientific evidence. Using what you just heard, would you support Wegener’s hypothesis or not?

Answer 1

Answer - The main reason that Wegener's hypothesis was not accepted was because he suggested no mechanism for moving the continents. He thought the force of Earth's spin was sufficient to cause continents to move, but geologists knew that rocks are too strong for this to be true.

Answer 2

No, I would not.

Step-by-step explanation:

I would not support his theory, due to the lack of information, and he had no good conclusion on why or how they were drifting
