Continental drift is the idea that

• continents move over time

• some continents subduct under others

• Earth's magnetic pole has reversed

• earthquakes occur at plate boundaries

Evidence to support seafloor spreading includes

• similar rocks on different continents

• evidence of magnetic pole reversal on ocean floor

• fossils of animals and plants have been found on different continents

• rocks are younger at mid-ocean ridges, and older at the continents

Continental drift occurs because of

• Pangaea

• earthquakes

• seafloor spreading

• the Earth's magnetic poles have reversed
