Question

The Earth has a magnetic north and south. How does this help up with evidence to support the theory of Continental Drift?

Answer 1

Some types of rocks have a Magnetic North and a Magnetic South. This is established when a rock is formed. If the continents stayed still then the rocks would match up with the land. There are places where the North and South do not match up with the Earth. This supports the theory that landmasses moved and changed over time.
