Answer:
The correct answer is option d. "India was a separate continent until 45 million years ago".
Explanation:
135 million years ago, Pangea was a single continent that became separated into Laurasia in the north and Gondwana in the south. India was part of Gondwana along with Australia, South America, Antarctica and Africa. However, as a result of tectonic activity India got separated from Gondwana. This period of time at which India was a separated continent is the factor that most likely explains why animals and plants in India differ greatly from species in nearby southeast Asia. At being a separated continent, India's plants and animals go through an independent evolutionary process which made them very different an unique from nearby species.
Answer:
Explanation:
The upwelling of nutrients rich water to the top will increase species numbers and diversity.
When a particular area has the ability to sustain live by providing food and nutrients required for growth of organism the population will greatly increase this is because nutrients is the major source of competition among species for survival and every species goes in search for it and where there is abundance of it there will be a rise in population and diversity.
Varying type of species that are diverse in nature comes together, mating occurs more diverse species are formed.
