Bananas are great sources of potassium, but eating one of these yellow fruits won't be enough to supply your body with the recommended daily intake (RDI) of this important mineral.
Wegener believe that there was once a single supercontinent, which he called Pangea (or Pangaea). He said that Pangea broke apart millions of years ago to form two large continents. He called the one in the northern hemisphere Laurasia and the one in the southern hemisphere Gondwanaland.lfred Wegener, who was educated to be a meteorologist and an Arctic climatologist, insisted that his theory was correct because of the evidence he saw. To support his ideas about continental drift, Wegener pointed to the similarities in the fossils of the southern continents.
Although Wegener's continental drift theory was discarded, it did introduce the idea of moving continents to geoscience. And decades later, scientists would confirm some of Wegener's ideas, such as the past existence of a supercontinent joining all the world's landmasses as one.art of the opposition was because Wegener didn't have a good model to explain how the continents moved apart. Though most of Wegener's observations about fossils and rocks were correct, he was outlandishly wrong on a couple of key points.
