Question

what other evidence supports the theory of continental drift?
the remains of land bridges were found that animals walked across which shows the continents were once connected
the same fossils were found on different continents proving the continents were once together
there was evidence from earthquakes that shows the continents broke off from one another

Explanation:

To determine the correct evidence for Continental Drift:

• The first option (land bridge remains) is incorrect; land bridges are a rejected old hypothesis, not evidence for drift.
• The second option (same fossils on different continents) is valid. Fossils of identical species (e.g., Mesosaurus) found on separate continents (like South America and Africa) suggest the continents were once connected (as they couldn’t migrate across oceans).
• The third option (earthquake evidence) is incorrect; earthquakes relate to plate tectonics (a later theory) but not direct evidence for continental drift’s original premise.

Answer:

The correct option is: the same fossils were found on different continents proving the continents were once together (the second option with the checkbox next to it).
