Reptiles and amphibians are distantly related but share some traits including:
1. They are both poikilothermic (cold-blooded) animals i.e. their body temperature is dependent on that of the environment's.
2. They both lay eggs externally, although that of amphibians is fertilized after being layed
3. They both possess lungs for gaseous exchange, although, amphibians use gills in water.
4. Both reptiles and amphibians belongs to Chordata i.e. they both possess a vertebrae column (backbone)

Explanation:
The correct answer is - 1,180 km.
North America and Europe move away from one another, though the two plates, the North American and Eurasian are merging together on the other side. Since the rate of moving away is 2 cm per year, and the current distance is 1,184 km between North America and Europe, the distance between them 200,000 years ago was 1,180 km.
To get to the result we only need to multiply the number of years with the annual movement
2 x 200,000 = 400,000
Than divide the result with 100,000, as that is how much cm are in one km
400,000 / 100,000 = 4
And we get 4 km, in this case 4 km less, thus the distance between the two, 200,000 years ago, was 1,180 km.
Hello!
The continental drift says that the world was made up of a single continent, now divided by the plate-tectonics movement. The plate-tectonics, so, explains how the continents are drifting.
