Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Laurasia eventually split into North America, Europe, and Asia. Therefore, if a species was only found in Laurasia 135 million years ago, its descendants would most likely be found on these continents today. Option B (Africa and South America) is not correct because these continents were part of the supercontinent Gondwana at that time and did not have a connection to Laurasia. Option C (Europe and Asia only) is also not entirely correct as North America was also part of Laurasia. Option D (North America only) is not correct because Laurasia consisted of more than just North America.
