What evidence exists that supports the idea of Pangea?

Biology

Karolina [17]3 years ago
4 0

Continents can be made to fit together like a piece of jigsaw puzzle, also the similarity of the Atlantic coastlines of Africa and south America was also recognized so Alfred wegener in the early 1900s made a strong case for continental drift , he noted that south America, Africa,India , Antarctica, and Australia had almost identical Paleozoic rock and fossils. He then reassembled the continent to form a giant super continent which he called pangea , his reason was that the similar rocks and fossils were easier explained if the continent are joined together.

Explanation:The fossil record helped to support the idea of pangea becos these fossils were found in all 5 continent as at that time so it could only be possible if these continent were actually joined together for example the fossil remains of land-dwelling reptiles Lystrosaurus and Cynognathus are found in Triassic-age rocks on all the five continent, also the plant Glossopteris is found in Pennsylvania and Permian-age rock on all five continent

farmer produces two types of corn plants. one has larger sized kernels but fewer yields and another has smaller sized kernels wi
vekshin1
The answer is: insert the gene responsible for larger sized kernels into the genome of the corn with smaller sized kernels and a high yield.<span>

The techniques of genetic engineering are used to introduce hybrid genes for some desired substance or trait into the genome of other organisms. Here, the desired trait is larger sized kernels. So, the gene responsible for this trait will be inserted into the genome of the corn </span><span>with smaller sized kernels and a high yield.

It should be taken into consideration why two other choices are not correct:
1. there are no genes for less or more of something in the genome.
2. genes are part of a genome, so the genome for a trait cannot be inserted into a gene of an organism.</span>
