Answer:

South America and Africa.

Explanation:

South America and Africa are the two continents which provides a strong evidence for the continental drift because their sides has a specific structure which can be fit with one another. The east coast of South America and the west coast of Africa fit together like pieces of a puzzle. The rock composition of east coast of South America and the west coast of Africa also similar which gives us a strongest evidence for the movement of big land masses away from each other that occurs with the passage of millions of years.

Verdich [7]

Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

Climate oscillation or climate cycles are a recurring oscillation within the global or regional climates and their fluctuations produce varying climatic cells and pressures often occurring on an interannual and multi annular basis.

On a decadal and millennium timescales.Current examples of the ENSO, Pacific oscillation, Antarctica, and arctic oscillation. like ENSO is characterized by flooding and drought conditions and the distribution of extreme conditions in the form of heat and cold waves.

Other cycles like the Piora oscillation, Little ice age, medieval warm period, retreating of glaciers and warming of the planet. All these cycles move on earth from the equator to tropics to temperate to polar areas and the continuous warming and cooling periods have altered the rate of spreading of the seafloor and oceanic basin.

Present warming has drastically created a major change in the evolution of species causing extinction and quick decomposition of resources. The release of carbon and methane gases over these years have raised the greenhouse effect at alarming rates.
