Provide evidence that ancient Antarctica was situated in a different location from its location today A.rock layers match up in
Antarctica and in the arctic B. it had to have been in a warm area and then moved there by plate tectonics over time due to the warm-climate plant fossils found there C. alfred wegener said the continents moved from their original places over time
B. it had to have been in a warm area and then moved there by plate tectonics over time due to the warm-climate plant fossils found there
Explanation:
One evidence that suggests that ancient Antarctica was situated in a different location from today is seen in the warm-climate fossils plants found there.
Antarctica today occupies the southern polar region of the earth.
It the coldest region on earth with very extreme of cold.
From the theory of continental drift proposed as subset of plate tectonics, the continent Antarctica was once a landmass in a tropical region with lush green plants.
Fossils of palm fronds and seeds of tropical plant species have been unearthed in some sedimentary layers in the continent.
The scientific explanation to this is that the continent was once up above it's current position.
