Answer:

Wegener presented a number of evidence to prove his plate tectonic theory, such as :

  • His knowledge hat organisms such as freshwater reptiles were found in almost all continents
  • He also identified organisms that live in different continents, and could not possibly cross over to the other continents due to water bodies (oceans) separating the continents.

Wegener's plate tectonic theory caused doubts to other scientists, because of the way he presented his evidence. Other scientists considered his mechanisms unrealistic

julia-pushkina [17]
These are some ways how scientists and engineers develop, use and refine models.

1. Imagine. They have to know what exactly trying to model. They have to imagine and brainstorm what are the things to be considered.

2. Reason. Next, they need to answer the questions brought  from their brainstorming. They need to be able to reason out.

3. Calculate and Predict. Once they know it, that's the time they can start modelling and calculate - and predict.
