I wasn't able to fit the amount of text in the provided space. Please check the attached papers.
1. Wegener suggested the idea of continental drift and the existence of an original super-continent, Pangaea.
2. Scientists began to think that the continents were parts of
larger plates, based on information about the mid-ocean ridges and earthquakes.
3. Suess suggested the idea that the Earth’s continents were originally two larger continents, Laurasia and Gondwanaland.
4. Paleomagnetism in ocean rocks provided proof for seafloor spreading, convincing many scientists of the validity of the theory of plate tectonics.
Hope this helps!
