False, pernicious anemia may take up to 5 years to show symptoms. However, the oxygen starts to get depleted within the first 6 months in thalassemia major.

Pernicious anemia:

In this condition, the body is unable to absorb vitamin B12 which leads to lowered amount of red blood cells which are responsible for carrying oxygen throughout the body. It is an autoimmune disease in which antibodies attack their own cells in the lining of the stomach which affects the absorption of vitamin B12. The symptoms of pernicious anemia are dizziness, fatigue, diarrhea, constipation, breathlessness, and loss of appetite. The depletion of oxygen is seen in thalassemia major within 6 months.

Which fossil occurs on the most landmasses what does this suggest about when the continents broke up
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Glossopteris and Lystrosaurus

Explanation:

Glossopteris is an ancient plant flora and Lystrosaurus is a fossil fauna, and both are found in many of the landmasses on earth. The Glossopteris flora appeared about 300 to 200 million years back and the Lystrosaurus appeared about 250 million years back on earth. They both existed from the time of late Permian to early Triassic age.

Both these fossils played an important role in understanding the continental drift theory or the plate tectonic theory. This evidence enabled geologists to understand how the continents have moved across the large ocean basin from one place to another and at what rate they are drifting currently. It helped in understanding how the super-continent Pangaea had broken into Laurasia and Gondwanaland, and further broken into the present location of the plates.
