Question
which indicates how evidence of climate change supports the theory of continental drift?
coal fields in several continents
volcano formation
glacial evidence found in south africa
folded mountains in africa and south america
Glacial evidence in South Africa shows that the continent was once in a colder climate zone. This supports continental drift as it implies that South Africa has moved from a polar - like position to its current location over geological time. Coal fields are related more to past vegetation and sedimentation, volcano formation is about tectonic and magmatic processes, and folded mountains are evidence of plate - to - plate collision rather than direct climate - related evidence for continental drift.
