The rotation of the earth is in an eastward manner. This means that, if viewed from the north pole, the earth rotates counterclockwise. This means that curvature of the earth blocks all objects that are in the west, while objects in the east are seen to rise as the earth rotates. Imagine this as a stick figure on a tennis ball. If the ball is rotated, the direction in which the ball rotates will be the one in which objects "rise" for the stick figure, while the direction opposite to rotation direction will be where the objects "set".

Even land that is now very diverse once started out as what?
evablogger [386]

As of right now, the land is pretty spread out. But millions of years ago, like, we're talking dino time, all the land was just one chunk. This chunk was called Pangaea, or Pangea. But before everything split apart into multiple continents, there was just one; a supercontinent. Hope that helps!

Which features are associated with flight?
cricket20 [7]
The ancestors of birds were most likely arboreal. 

<span>Having gliding surfaces is advantageous in arboreal animals because it means less likelihood of dying due to a fall. You'll notice that plenty of arboreal animals today have gliding surfaces. </span>

<span>In the ancestors of birds, the gliding surface just happened to stretch from the "fingers" down to the body, setting up for control of the glide, and for further refinement with elongation of the fingers and arms. With this, the animals were not just saving their lives when falling, they could glide from one tree to another to look for food. </span>

<span>A similar process likely happened in the ancestors of bats. </span>

<span>Don't ask me about pterosaurs or insects, 'cause I don't know.</span>
