Why can paper cutouts of the continents including the continental margins be pieced together to form a single whole?

How can the locations where ancient fossils are found be used as evidence for continental drift?

To show that mountain ranges on opposite sides of the Atlantic formed as two parts of the same range and were once joined, what would you look for?

What are the three possible explanations for apparent polar wander? Considering all the evidence, which explanation is the only one likely to be true and why?

With so much evidence to support continental drift, how could scientists reject the idea?
Look at a world map. Besides the coast of west Africa and eastern South America, what are some other regions of the world that look as they could be closely fit together?

Paper cutouts of the continents including the continental margins can be pieced together to form a single, large land mass.
The cuttouts can be put together, because it used to be. It used to be a huge land mass.

Certain fossils from animalsand plants that died on the direct border where the large land mass broke up match to those on the other side. This is evidence that they used to be connected.

Look for minerals and rock sorts. If the rock sorts are the same and the layers match up it will have been the same mountain once.
