The plant fossils found at Svalbard in Norway provided evidence of drifting continents because they were warm climate plants that would not grow in a cold polar area. This suggests that Svalbard was once located in a much warmer climate, supporting the theory of continental drift, which posits that continents have moved over geological time to their current positions.
Answered by GPT-4o mini
The correct response is: **They were warm climate plants that would not grow in a cold polar area.** This indicates that Svalbard was once situated in a warmer climate, supporting the evidence for the movement of continents over time.

The correct response is: **Those continents were once a part of one supercontinent.** This discovery of similar marsupial fossils across continents supports the theory of continental drift, indicating that these landmasses were once joined together in a supercontinent before breaking apart and drifting to their current locations.

The correct response is: **when two plates collided with each other.** The Himalayas were formed as a result of the collision between the Indian Plate and the Eurasian Plate, which caused the uplift of the mountain range.
Answered by GPT-4o mini
The correct response is: **It has not erupted recently.** A dormant volcano is one that is currently inactive but may erupt again in the future.
Answered by GPT-4o mini
The correct response is: **a divergent boundary in the ocean.** The volcanoes of Iceland are formed along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates are moving apart, creating a divergent boundary in the ocean.
