Answer:

Option D, Continents cannot cut through the ocean floor.

Explanation:

It was believed earlier that oceans were the land bridges that used to connect  different geologic plates of planet earth earlier, had now sank down and thus there exists no connection between the tectonic plates. Therefore,  without any link or connection, continents cannot cut through the ocean floor.

Also as per the Land Bridge Theory , there has been continuous shifting of dry land due to which identical land species on different continents were found.

Hence, option D is correct

Also Biocentric views tend to focus more on biotic factors (living things) and anthroprocentric veer towards the abiotic factors (non-living things).
