Which statement describes one of Wegener's ideas that contributed to the theory of continental drift?

The continents drifted apart due to repeated meteor impacts.

The continents were once connected as one landmass.

The continents have moved apart very quickly due to earthquakes.

The continents are magnetically pulled toward or pushed away from one another.

Option B

The continents were once connected as one landmass.

Explanation:

The theory of continental drift suggests that all the continents on the planet were once connected, forming a supercontinent. However, over time they drifted apart as a result of some internal forces of the earth.

The most appropriate option that shows this is option B: The continents were once connected as one landmass.

This statement describes one of Alfred Wegener's ideas that suggests that a very long time ago, the continents were once connected in a landlocked mass. The fact that the continents are separated now shows that the continents are continuously shifting position on the earth's surface.
