Answer 1

The fern Glossopteris provides evidence for the movement of continents primarily because C) it was found on many continents. Fossilized remains of Glossopteris have been discovered in South America, Africa, Antarctica, Australia, and India, suggesting that these continents were once connected in a supercontinent (known as Gondwana) and have since drifted apart. This widespread distribution of the same plant species supports the theory of continental drift.
