The answer is 6 per m2.

A population density is the number of animals per 1 m2.
So, this problem can be solved by using a proportion:
If 60 raccoons live in 10 m2, how many raccons will live in the 1 m2.
60 raccoons : 10 m2 = x raccoons : 1 m2
60 raccoons : 10 = x raccoons
x raccoons = 6 raccoons

Thus, the population density is 6 raccoons per m2.

Answer:

The correct answer is option A, 6\frac{Racoons}{m^2}\\

Explanation:

The Population density of any species in an ecosystem is equal to the number of that species living in one unit of area.  

Thus , population density can be represented as  

\frac{Total population }{Total area of habitat} \\

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -

= \frac{60}{10} \frac{Racoons}{m^2}\\= 6 \frac{Racoons}{m^2}\\

Which of the three things provide evidence that South America, Africa, Antarctica, and Australia were once together as one super
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

- Glacial deposits and scratches in the bedrock from an ice sheet match in distant regions

- Fossils of marsupials were originally the same across South America and Australia

- Cratons match across the edges of continents

Explanation:

South America, Africa, Antarctica, and Australia were all once part of one super-continent. This super-continent has been named Gondwanaland. As the geological processes got more intensive though and Gondwanaland separated into smaller land masses, continents, which we now know as the continents on the Southern Hemisphere. There are numerous clues that confirm that these continents were once connected. Some of the clues are the matching cratons on the edges of the continents, the glacial deposits and scratches in the bedrock are also matching, lot of fossilized flora and fauna from the same species have been found in several of these continents, the marsupials in South America and Australia  etc.
