Geographers have found rocks in Antarctica similar to those in Eastern North America. How does this help explain continental movement?

Hi, lesliexbaby!

Have you ever read about what you'll find via clicking on the following links?

Continental drift - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continental_drift)

CONTINENTAL DRIFT - Paleontology and Geology Glossary (http://www.enchantedlearning.com/subjects/dinosaurs/glossary/Contdrift.shtml)

Pangaea - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pangaea)

The Pangaea Theory (http://library.thinkquest.org/17701/high/pangaea/)

If you look at them and think about it, most of the continents that exist today look like they could have all fit together somehow sort of like a very large gig saw puzzle.

Thanks!
