Continental Drift Theory
and Plate Tectonics
Theory
Alfred Wegener proposed
the continental drift
theory.
 Continental Drift theory
states that there was a
supercontinent called Laurasia
and eventually divided and
drifted apart.
 Continental Drift theory
states that there was a
supercontinent called Pangaea
and eventually divided and
drifted apart.
In the Continental Drift Theory,
Laurasia is a continental mass
that includes South America,
Africa, Arabia, Madagascar,
India, Australia and Antarctica.

that moves continents
based on heat energy

that move apart and creates
space in between for rising
magma.
The oceanic crust is

boundary.
 Mountains is formed
during continental to
continental convergent
boundary.

Volcanism
 Volcanism is usually
focused at plate margins.
The three types of volcanism are:
● Spreading Center Volcanism
● Subduction Zone Volcanism
● Interplate or Hotspot Volcanism

Each question has different choices.

Choose the letter which you think is
the correct/best answer to the
question and type it in the chat box.
