Answer:

India was a separate continent until 45 million years ago

Explanation:

India was part of the Gondwanaland continent which was one of the two remnants of Pangaea, while Asia was part of Laurasia, the other remnant of Pangaea. Because these two land masses were separate, the animals and plants were evolving separately for millions of years. India further separated from Gondwanaland, and it was actually a very large island for millions of years, resulting in isolation and development of unique animals and plants because of it. As India was moving it reached Asia and collided with it, thus becoming one land mass. Some Asian species managed to get in India, but mostly in its northern parts, while the central and southern parts remained dominated by the indigenous species. The Himalayan Mountain Range that formed because of the collision also helped in preserving lot of the indigenous species as it became a natural barrier that most species can not go through.

What is the greenhouse effect and how does it affect climate change?
Natalka [10]
The greenhouse effect is the effect where carbon dioxide (usually from factory gas emissions, car exhaust gas, etc) gets sent into the Earth's atmosphere , however, instead of disappearing, it gets trapped under the atmosphere of the Earth and cause the temperature of the planet to rise. The temperatures rise since the radiation of the sun's rays gets trapped under the layer of carbon dioxide. This affects climate change since when the globe warms up, our earth begins to warm up too resulting in colder parts of the earth to rise in higher temperatures than usual.
