Question
6 where have identical fossils been found that support the idea of continental drift? a europe and asia b south america and africa c north america and australia d asia and antarctica
Identical fossils of organisms like Mesosaurus (a freshwater reptile) have been discovered on the eastern coast of South America and the western coast of Africa. These organisms could not have crossed the vast Atlantic Ocean, providing key evidence that these two continents were once connected as part of the supercontinent Pangaea, supporting continental drift theory. The other continent pairs do not have such well-documented, identical fossil evidence for continental drift.
