Answer:

Option b

Explanation:

In the year 1912, a meteorologist and a geophysicist, proposed a theory that explained positional shifts in the continents on the surface of the Earth.

Likewise, he also clarified why similarity in appearance exist between the fossils of animals and plants and comparable rock developments are found on various continents.

Alfred Wegener proposed that maybe the Earth's rotation made the continents move towards and separate from one another or crerated continental drift. (It doesn't.) Today, we realize that the continents lay on monstrous sections of rocks called tectonic plates.  

The plates are continually moving and connecting in a procedure called plate tectonics.
