Answer:

One piece of evidence in fossils.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pangaea was what we know now to be our world, our crust was all combined to be as one. Then as the years went by and the animals died, their fossils would be found around the world as the crust began to shift. Fossils that died in one place would be found elsewhere. That's one way we could tell that the crust moves.

Answer:

Discovering that the physical fit of continents is one piece of evidence.

The lava cools so quickly in the cold water that it is called "pillow lava.” The evidence collected by advanced technology indicated that Earth's crust was moving.

Earthquakes and volcanic activity are also evidence.

The plates can be thought of like pieces of a cracked shell that rest on the hot, molten rock of Earth's mantle and fit snugly against one another. The heat from radioactive processes within the planet's interior causes the plates to move, sometimes toward and sometimes away from each other
