Question

  1. which of the following is not fossil evidence that supports wegeners theory of continental drift? similar fossils are found in africa and antarctica of a large reptile unable to swim across the ocean. the fossils that are found on one continent can be very different from those on another continent. fossils are found in areas with a present - day climate that would not support the organism. similar fossils are found along the coastlines of continents that appear to fit together.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Wegener's theory of continental drift is supported by similar fossils found on different continents that were once connected, fossils of organisms that couldn't cross oceans, and fossils in areas with climates that don't match the organism's needs today. Fossils being different on one continent compared to another is not evidence for the theory as it doesn't show a connection between the continents in the past.

Answer:

Fossils are found on one continent can be very different from those on another continent.
