Answer:

Option: a. 200 million years ago

Explanation:

Million years ago, Earth had one supercontinent called Pangaea and surrounded by an ocean (Panthalassa). Alfred Wegener proposed the concept of one big continent after putting together different records of confirmation. He was able to give his theory by examining fossils of plants, trees, animals, and reptiles that found in different continents. About 200 million years ago, the supercontinent began to split up into two parts; Gondwana from Laurasia. Today's countries, including Africa, Antarctica, India, South America, and Australia are part of Gondwana, where Europe and North America from Laurasia.

Which rocky intertidal zone, also called the super tidal zone, is only covered by water during strong storms?
Alex777 [14]

spray zone is the  rocky intertidal zone, also called the super tidal zone, is only covered by water during strong storms.

The topmost region where the marine ecology and terrestrial ecosystem converge is known as the Spray Zone. It is a transitional area, and the breadth and height vary from one location to the next. In the image above, a rock with a few weakly growing terrestrial plants meets a pine forest. The water is close to the bottom of the grey rock wall.

The organisms that dwell in the Spray Zone must be resilient to desiccation (drying out), salt spray, wind, and sporadic surf action. The terrestrial plants that you can see growing between the pine forest and the rock can withstand salt and set roots in fissures and fractures where soil has been trapped and stabilized. Low species diversity can be seen in this area. Do you recall the dominant organism in the spray zone? Let's get to know this plant, hint.
