Correct option is D
The correct answer is (d) Gondwanaland.
Gondwanaland was the southern part of the ancient supercontinent Pangea, which existed during the late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic eras. It included what are now the southern continents: South America, Africa, Antarctica, Australia, and India.
Angara Land, the northern part of Pangea, refers to what is now the Eurasian Plate.
The Tethys Sea was the ocean that separated Gondwanaland from Angara Land.
Additional Information:
- Eurasian Plate: A tectonic plate that now forms parts of Europe and Asia, not the southern landmass of Pangea.
- Tethys Sea: An ancient sea that existed between the continents of Gondwanaland and Angara Land, not a landmass.
- Indo-Australian Plate: A tectonic plate formed later, representing the combined landmasses of India and Australia, but not the southern part of Pangea.
