Question

In 1983, a team of scientists discovered a fossilized bone of a giant bird when excavating land in Brazil. After studying the fossil, the team thought that the bird was unique to South America but had been extinct for millions of years. Many years later, another fossil from the same giant bird was found in Nigeria. The two fossils were formed in rock that was very similar to one another.

Look at the land masses on the map. What can the scientists conclude?

a
The land masses were once connected.
b
These were two different types of giant birds, even if their fossils look identical.
c
The fossils date to different time periods and appear in separate regions.
d
The giant bird migrated to South America, because the bones were later found in Nigeria.
