Fossil evidence , mountain ranges for example the range between Buenos Aires, Argentina, match mountain ranges in South Africa, sea floor spreading which is what can be used to describe different rock layers at the sea floor , Pangea, Gondwanaland and Laurasia etc etc
There were bones from dinosaurs, the exact same on two different continents, giving him a theory of the continental drift. Plus if you look at a map, you will notice that some continents fit ether like a puzzle, for example, Africa and South America.
Sedimentary rocks that are formed due to the accumulation of sediments that are derived from the deposition of small particles and their cementation of minerals and organic particles in the seafloor by the impact of various geological and earth processes like the wind, water, and glacier erosion.
Earth's crust is covered by 73% of sedimentary rocks and about 8% of the total crustal surface. Based on their formation, these rocks are thus classified as Siliciclastic, Carbonate, Evaporite, Iron-rich, and Phosphatic sedimentary rocks.
The color of these rocks is always determined by the iron and oxide contents, their size texture is a result of the density and permeability of the rocks like in the case of sandstone and limestone.
The relationship between the plate tectonics and the earthquakes is explained through the seismic waves that travel; through the three-layer of the earth from core to mantle to crust.
Earthquakes are directly related to plate boundaries as these are areas where these waves come out in the form of shocks and shaking of lands thus we expect of seeing three types of boundaries as Convergent, Divergent and Transform.
the side of the volcanoes and other pyroclastic ejecta become saturated with water
Explanation:
A pyroclastic flows can generate the lahar when they are extreme ty hot and flows with the rocks bedrock. This debris mixes up with the snow met and ice and gets rapidly traveled upwards.
It travels rapidly down steep slopes and a larger can also be formed when a high volume of long duration of rainfall occurs after the eruption. And the volcanic landslides are mixed with water.
