Plate Tectonics

Pangaea is a theory where all continents began as

• one big country

• one big continent

South America and Africa look to fit together like a puzzle

• does not support the theory of Pangaea

• does support the theory of Pangaea

Fossils can also give evidence for a Pangaea theory

• True

• False

Pangaea is the name of an

• original fossil

• original continent

Lystrosaurus fossils are found in which locations

• South America and South Africa

• China and India

• Australia and Antarctica

• All of the above

When a fossil of an animal is found on almost all continents, then it supports

• the idea of a traveling animal

• the idea of a connected original continent

• the idea of a flying animal

Lystrosaurus did not have thumbs, hands or flippers so

• it probably did not build boats to go across seas

• it probably did not swim across seas

• it probably did not hitch hike

Lystrosaurus had strong legs which supports it

• swimming to other places

• sailing to other other places

• walking to other places

It makes sense that Lystrosaurus would walk across

• the ocean

• one connected continent

Plate tectonics is the theory that one continent separated

• on different tectonics

• on different oceans

• on different plates
