Why do scientist yes to believe that Florida was connected to northern Africa?

Scientists believe Florida was connected to northern Africa during the formation of the supercontinent Pangaea, around 335 million years ago. Geological evidence, such as similar rock formations and fossil records, supports this connection. Additionally, plate tectonics suggests that the landmasses have drifted apart over millions of years due to tectonic movements. This historical linkage is further evidenced by the alignment of geological features and climate similarities from that era.
