The fossil record of Antarctica shows the presence of tropical plants, such as one particular species related to the present day breadfruit. Most plants cannot survive in prolonged temperatures of less than 6 degrees Celsius. Antarctica is freezing all year round and could only have supported tropical and sub tropical plants if it was once much closer to the equator.
The presence of fresh water species also suggest that the continent was closer to the equator. Antarctica is frozen solid with a thick ice sheet.....rivers would be frozen solid all year round or would be limited to water movement under glaciers that melt as a result of pressure and friction. This environment is not suitable to support large fresh water organisms.

Why fission, regeneration and fragmentation, all are considered as methods of asexual reproduction ?​
MrRa [10]

➜ Fission (binary and multiple), regeneration and fragmentation are considered as methods of asexual reproduction because all of them involve only one parent and gametes are not formed in them. New individuals produced after cell division are always genetically identical or clone to their parents.

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Biosphere

Explanation:

The biosphere is the part of the earth that supports life forms. It includes hydrosphere, atmosphere, and lithosphere. Various ecosystems, aquatic or terrestrial, are present in the biosphere. Biotic and abiotic components of a geographical region that interact with each other together make an ecosystem.

The biotic component of an ecosystem includes all the organisms present in it. Organisms may be unicellular or multicellular. All the organisms are made up of one or more cells. Cells are made up of various biomolecules that interact and enable cells to perform the life processes.
