Question

need help! thanks

her Question 6 1 pts During the Paleozoic, Gondwana was over the South Pole and experienced extensive glaciation. How do these glaciations support the existence of Gondwana? o Glacial striations only make sense when the southern hemisphere continents are assembiled together into Gondwana o Glacial striations only make sense when the southern hemisphere continents are in their current pasitions. Extensive surface erosion has obliterated the glacial stristions, so there is no evidence far Gondwana Wegener could onty use fossil evidence for the amalgamation of Gondwans D Question 7 1 pts In Wegener's paleoclimate studies, his logic to explain extensive coal and tropical coral deposits from Paleozoic rocks in northern Europe and Canada was that the geographic North and South Poles must have been in different positions in the past these northern latitude continents must have been at tropical latitules in the past and have since drifted to their current positions Earth's climate during the Paleozoic was tropical at all latitudes the Earth was in a perod of perhion so it's distance to the sun was proximal

Explanation / Answer

answer-

1)Glacial striations only makes sense when the southern hemisphere continents are assembled together into Gondwana.

tillite deposits are found at the base of gondwana coal deposits supporting the same.

2)The geographic NORTH and SOUTH poles must have been in different positions in the past.

Polar wandering curve of the Gondwanaland during the Paleozoic Era support the above fact.
