The Appalachian Mountains in the U.S. match up with a similar mountain ranges in northern Europe. How does this support Wegener's theory of Continental Drift?
The mountains were formed after tectonic plates had moved away from each other
The similarities provide evidence North America & Europe were connected when the mountains formed.
Similar rock samples were found on the ocean floor and at the two mountain ranges indicating that they both formed around the same time.
This evidence does not support the theory of continental drift.
