Answer:

Continental drift, large-scale horizontal movements of continents relative to one another and to the ocean basins during one or more episodes of geologic time. ... This concept was an important precursor to the development of the theory of plate tectonics, which incorporates it.

  • The evidence for continental drift included the fit of the continents; the distribution of ancient fossils, rocks, and mountain ranges; and the locations of ancient climatic zones.
  • Seafloor spreading helps explain continental drift in the theory of plate tectonics. When oceanic plates diverge, tensional stress causes fractures to occur in the lithosphere. ... At a spreading center, basaltic magma rises up the fractures and cools on the ocean floor to form new seabed....

  • Oceans may be not but continents s...... it have relationship..... with each other....
