Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

The earth's crust is comprised of the lithospheric plate and they are constantly in motion over the viscous layer of asthenosphere due to the generation of convection current in the mantle. It is due to the heat radiated from the interior of the earth.  

These plates were once all together forming a supercontinent named Pangaea. This Pangaea got separated into Laurasia and Gondwanaland.

North America was formed from the separation of the Laurasia about 200 million years back.

This plate motion was proved by some of the evidence put forwarded by Alfred Wegener. The continental drift theory that was modified to Plate tectonic theory was able to explain the mechanism behind this plate motion.

Hence, the correct answer is option (A).

How does ATP store energy for life's processes and how is it recycled?
maw [93]
ATP stores energy in the form of a high energy phosphate bond which then joins the terminal phosphate group to the rest of the molecule. When the cell needs energy, it takes the ATP and converts it to ADP and phosphate. Rather than discarding them, they travel back to the mitochondria where they are recycled in order to produce another ATP!
