The correct answer is - 1,180 km.
North America and Europe move away from one another, though on the other end of the plates, the Eurasian and the North American plates are actually merging. Since the rate of moving away is 2 cm per year, and the current distance is 1,184 km between North America and Europe, the distance between them 200,000 years ago was 1,180 km.
To get to the result we only need to multiply the number of years with the annual movement
2 x 200,000 = 400,000
Then divide the result with 100,000, as that is how much cm are in one km
400,000 / 100,000 = 4
And we get 4 km, in this case 4 km less, thus the distance between the two, 200,000 years ago, was 1,180 km.
An element is the simplest form of matter that has a unique set of properties. Examples of well-known elements include oxygen, iron, and gold (see the figure below). Elements cannot be broken down into a simpler substance.

Answer:
The mass number of an atom is its total number of protons and neutrons. Atoms of different elements usually have different mass numbers , but they can be the same. For example, the mass number of argon atoms and calcium atoms can both be 40.
Explanation:
False.
The layering is usually thin.
