the adaptations of species shown in the fossil record gives an idea to what their surrounding were like.
scientists study fossils to learn about climates long ago. If a plant fossil looks like a modern plant , sicentist guess two plants need the same climate.
fossils tell about the earths climate. there are fossil trees and fossil experts(such as me) can study them and they tell us about the earths climate millions of years ago. the climate back then was warm and tropical,like a rainforest.the fossil trees also tell us there age. we can find out by counting the rings.
We generally know what types of plants grow in different environments. If we find the fossil of a cold weather plant in a warm environment, that tells us that the climate for that area has changed over time. *Remember students, copying and pasting this text into an assignment is considered plagiarism.
The 3 pieces of evidence is: 1. fossils 2. climate 3. glaciers Wegner found out that the same fossils were found on a different continent. There was this tropical plant (i forgot whats it called) was found at a icy cold region so then the plant couldn't grow there only by continental drift. The glaciers have scratches on them which was one of the evidence. I hope this really helped :D
Same fossils of a plant on different continents.
Change in temperature, change in climate, change in plant growth.
he used climate clues and fossil clues and rock clues to figure out for example he found that it was warm in the south and the north and he founddinosaurs fossils on different continents and he found out that there was the same rocks on different continents there so that answers your question.
1. Fossils of the same plant or animal are found in different continents. 2. The shape of Africa and South America looks like they fit together. 3. The age and type of rock are the same on different continents. MORE: 4. The mountains chain seem to continue. 5. Coal from Antartica or from very cold region that used to be warmer/
Fossils, primarilly and nonspecifically.

historical climate change effect on current biogeography.climate change has important implication.
Change in temperature, change in climate, change in plant growth.
a plant that is a fossil
We know Pangaea existed because of fossil evidence. There were fossils of the same animal found on Africa and South America. This animal couldn't have possibly swam across the ocean. Therefore, making the idea of Pangaea plausible.

No. Fossils can be animal, plant, or other things (like footprints or coprolites). Coal, for instance, is mostly plant matter and has lots of 'fossils' in it.
plant fossils (glossopteris) were found there.
Fossils provide information about past environmental conditions. Fossils that provide indirect (proxy) information on past environmental conditions are called paleo-indicators. Certain types of plants, for example, require specific temperature and moisture conditions in order to thrive
Steffen W Graae is a professor of biology known for his research on plant ecology and biodiversity. He has authored numerous scientific papers on topics such as species coexistence, competitive interactions in plant communities, and the effects of climate change on biodiversity.
