1. Substance closest to the heat source becomes less dense and rises up 2. As the substance moves away from the heat source it becomes more dense and goes back down to the heat source. 3. The process repeats

In the rain forests, near the equators, Wegener found proof of Glaciers being there at one time. How could there be glaciers in the past in Africa and South America?
In the rain forests, near the equators, Wegener found proof of Glaciers being there at one time. How could there be glaciers in the past in Africa and South America?
Due to Continental Drift, Africa and South America used to be by the South Pole and freezing cold.
