View options
  1. Understanding them as directional and geological divisions of Pangaea
  2. Memorising them as modern cities
  3. Taking them as river systems
  4. Considering them names of tidal forces
Hard · Level 29 · coastline fit,fossil evidence,reliability
View options
  1. Because visual and biological independent clues both support old connection
  2. Because both show present weather
  3. Because both show similarity of cities
  4. Because both measure tide height
Hard · Level 29 · independent evidence,geological biological,hypothesis
View options
  1. Because a hypothesis becomes stronger when different sources give similar conclusion
  2. Because both depend on only one organism
  3. Because both are related to politics
  4. Because both show present market
Hard · Level 29 · panthalassa,glossopteris,term distinction
View options
  1. It is wrong because Panthalassa was the ocean surrounding Pangaea
  2. It is correct because Panthalassa was Glossopteris
  3. It is correct because Panthalassa is tillite
  4. It is wrong because Panthalassa is a modern city
