How does the location of Mesosaurus fossils support the theory of
continental drift?

hope this helps

Explanation:

There are many examples of fossils found on separate continents and nowhere else, suggesting the continents were once joined. If Continental Drift had not occurred, the alternative explanations would be: The species evolved independently on separate continents – contradicting Darwin's theory of evolution.

Fossil evidence helped prove the theory of continental drift because similar fossils could be found on separate continents, in rocks of roughly the same age, surrounded by layers that matched each other and in some cases, found nowhere else in the world

uhh idk for sure but i think it makes it difficult to pump the oil through the oil rigs
