Answer:

there have been several cases where fossils of the same type and age where found on different continents.

For example:-

"The Mesosaurus" which is an extinct genus of reptile from the Early Permian and was found in the continents of southern Africa and South America.

This seems to point to the fact that once all the continents were togethe, and they are now separate due to the Continental drift. ( the theory that states that all the continents were earlier one big form of landmass, but they have moved away from each other thus appearing to have "drifted" across the ocean bed."

But again these are all just theories and speculations but findings like these strengthen them and make people believe in these theories. They haven't exactly been confirmed. Like the evolution theory.

i hope this helps.

have a great day ahead :)

Scientists say that photosynthesis and cellular respiration are reciprocal processes. Why
ANTONII [103]

Cellular respiration and photosynthesis are essentially opposite processes. Photosynthesis is the process by which organisms make high-energy compounds -- the sugar glucose in particular -- through the chemical "reduction" of carbon dioxide (CO2). Cellular respiration, on the other hand, involves the breakdown of glucose and other compounds through chemical "oxidation." Photosynthesis consumes CO2 and produces oxygen. Cellular respiration consumes oxygen and produces CO2.
