The correct answer is (D) Laurasia and Gondwanaland
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the continental drift theory, the continents we know today formed a massive and unique continent called Pangaea; however, over time this huge continent split and formed the continents we know now. To begin Pangea separated into two large landmasses around 200 million years ago these masses were Laurasia and Gondwanaland. Laurasia included North America, Europe, and Asia. On the other hand, Gondwanaland included South America, Australia, Africa, Antarctica, and India. Additionally, these two subcontinents lead to the multiple continents we know today as over millions of years the landmasses continued dividing and moving. According to this, the names of the two landmasses that derive from the original supercontinent are Laurasia and Gondwanaland.
