Answer:
D. was rejected at first, but later accepted by the scientific community

Explanation:
when alfred wegener first proposed his theory of continental drift, he was basically a laughing stock in the scientific community. they didn't accept his theory and thought it was crazy and unbelievable. despite this, wegener kept believing in his own theory, but unfortunately it wasn't really until after he died that the scientific community actually accepted his theory of continental drift.
