Question

a classmate states that continental drift could not be possible because it would take far too much force to move tectonic plates. describe the hypotheses scientists use to explain the movement of tectonic plates. why hypothesis do many scientists think may explain the great force needed to move plates?

Answer 1

Earth is mysterious. But the Continental Drift did happen.
Proofs: All the continents fit together perfectly like a puzzle.

If you put all the continents together certain mountain ranges match up.

A third idea supporting movement of the continents was the glacial till deposits in the southern hemisphere.  With the continents in their present positions, the till deposits indicate erratic glacier motion.  When the continents are fitted together, they show a much more streamlined motion of the glacier from southern Africa and Northern Australia outward.
