In the early 1900s german geophysicist alfred wegener began to question how the structures on the earth formed over time. he proposed the theory of continental drift to suggest that all continents were once connected and have "drifted" to their current location over time.

what was the main reason that wegener's theory received a lot of ridicule from the scientific community?
a) no similar fossils were found on different continents.
b) there was no data to suggest any change in geologic structures.
c) wegener did not give a method on how the continents actually moved.
d) the outlines of the continents looked like puzzle pieces that would fit together.
