13. What information can be derived about Antarctica having fossils of ancient
plants and animals?
A. Antarctica drifted to the Southern hemisphere because of the melting
of glaciers that traps the plants and animals.
B. Antarctica has a very nice climate that caused these organisms to
migrate and stay.
C. It has a tropical climate today that provides a good environment for
complex life forms.
D. Antarctica had once located near the equator.
14. He is a German Scientist who hypothesized in 1912 that continents were
once a giant landmass called Pangaea.
A. Harry Hammond Hess C. Alfred Lothar Wegener
B. Robert Dietz D. Charles Darwin
15. What did Harry Hammond Hess realize in the 1950s when his team
continued exploring the ocean floor and discovered the Mid-Atlantic Ridge?
A. He realized that the oceanic crust is older than the continental crust.
B. He realized that Alfred Wegener's Continental Drift Theory is not true.
C. He realized that the oceanic crusts near the Mid-Atlantic Ridge are
thicker and less dense.
D. He realized that the Earth's crust had been moving away on each side
of oceanic ridges, down the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.

Explanation:
Pangaea
Pangaea or Pangea was a supercontinent that existed during the late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic eras. It assembled from earlier continental units approximately 335 million years ago, and began to break apart about 175 million years ago.
In contrast to the present Earth and its distribution of continental mass, Pangaea was centered on the Equator and surrounded by the superocean Panthalassa. Pangaea is the most recent supercontinent to have existed and the first to be reconstructed by geologists.
Alfred Wegener originally proposed that the breakup of Pangaea was due to centripetal forces from the Earth's rotation acting on the high continents.
