The theory of continental - drift suggests that continents were once joined and have since drifted apart. Mountains in South America and Africa, as well as those in Greenland and Norway, show similarities in size, rock type, and structure which support the idea of a past super - continent and continental movement. Mountains in North and South America are part of the same continental landmass now and their similarity is not evidence of continental drift in the same sense as the other two pairs.
