There are two continents with an ocean between them. today, the continents have very different plants and animals on them. however, a geologist found fossils of the same type of organism on both continents. millions of years ago, when this type of organism was alive, we know it lived in only one place. the geologist is using the fossils as evidence to argue that the two continents used to be touching. how could the continents have gotten so far apart, and how long did it take for this to happen?

Some of the continents might have moved apart after being together and might have been spread around by animals eating them, moving to another area, and the feces of the animal sink into the ground with some of the fossils still inside of it.

Explanation:

Your welcome!

there's multiple reasons why the conquistadors were so successful in colonizing central america, and some of them are:

- they were seen as gods;

at the beginning, the spanish settlers were seen by the natives as gods, and this was mainly due to their white skin, and the way they came with their boats.

- possessed superior weaponry;

the spanish had gunpowder and guns, as well as cannons, while the natives did not had any fire weapons.

- made cleaver alliances;

they used the situation of tribes hating each other, so they made alliances with some of them which served them very well.

- brought diseases;

the native people were not immune to certain diseases the europeans brought with them, so they were dying from seeming harmless things for european standards.
