<u>Answer:</u>

The mountain chains provide evidence to support the theory of continental drift by confirming that if the "mountain chains" that are now separated by "bodies of water "on different continents", would match up if these continents are placed next to each other.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • According to Alfred Wegener, the one who proposed the "continental drift theory", it is evident from the similarity in the physical attributes of a few mountain chains that they were once "part of the same continent".
  • Other than that, the findings of identical minerals in various mountain chains also support the authenticity of the "continental drift theory".

Why was the idea of continental drift not initially accepted by many other scientists and the general public at the time?
pantera1 [17]
The creators of the theory could not find a way to answer the question "What force was strong enough to move them?". Another reason why was that they proposed a movement speed of the continents that was incredibly high and impossible to reach.
