Glacier grooves are an example of climate change evidence because?

• glacial grooves are found in Antarctica today and it is cold

• glacial grooves are found in the warm areas today, so it means that continent used to be near the poles

• glacial grooves are found in the cold today and it is closer to the poles

• glacial grooves are found in the warm areas because there was an ice age and continents were never together

coal is an example of climate change evidence because...

• it is found in tropical areas today so it used to be near the equator

• it is found in swampy areas today so the area used to be near the poles

• it is found in cold areas today so it used to be closer to the equator

• coal is not an example of climate change

Which is the best statement for fossil evidence?

• Lystrosaurus fossils found on same continent, many places

• Lystrosaurus fossils found on several continents and they could swim in fresh water

• Lystrosaurus fossils found on two continents that are connected today

• Lystrosaurus fossils found on several continents and they could not swim, so the continents were connected.
