Why didnt the present shapes of the continents fit perfectly into a supercontinent
kirill115 [55]
The borders (coastlines) of the continents underwent a number of changes since the split. Often, chunks of land were washed away with water, slowly or in bigger portions. The coast was generally "smoothed" by the ocean currents too, and in some places more land was added with the material that the ocean currents brought.

Then, the tectonic plates continue to move, so this adds to the changes of the shape of the continents.

Which organisms have the fewest similarities? Explain why these organisms still qualify as living things despite sharing few cha
VladimirAG [237]

Plants have the fewest similarities with the other two groups of organisms.

<h3>Plants vs animals</h3>

Plants generally comprise all living organisms that have chlorophyll and are able to manufacture their own foods by photosynthesis.

Animals, on the other hand, are living organisms that cannot manufacture their foods and are mobile. Animals are either vertebrates or invertebrates.

Plants qualify as living organisms because they are able to feed, excrete, reproduce, grow, respond to stimuli, die, and carry out other basic characteristics of living organisms.
