Fossil Evidence Across Oceans

Fossil Evidence Across Oceans is a skill on Pengi from Lesson 2: Historical Evidence (Wegener) in Amplify Science (California) Grade 7.

Key Concepts

Wegener’s strongest proof came from fossils . He found identical fossils of the reptile Mesosaurus and the fern Glossopteris on continents separated by vast oceans.

Since these organisms could not swim or fly across an ocean, the only logical explanation was that the landmasses were connected when these creatures were alive. This fossil evidence provided the necessary support to argue that the continents had moved over time.
