Glossopteris, petrified wood

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The fossil evidence that was given by Alfred Wegener in his plate tectonic theory of the origin of the landmass form thew breaking and the making of the Pangea the supercontinent.
  • the presence of the glossopteris flora and various other faunal evidence have suggested that the same type of planet spice that existed on the western coast of Africa is also found in the coastal side of south America suggesting the continents had same development.
  • These glossopteris are known as the largest order of extinct ferns having leaves of tongue-shaped and feathery in appearance. The first appearance is associated with coal streams.
  • Petrified wood also tends to present in the fossilized remains of the fossils of terrestrial vegetation.
