Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Numerous terranes or microplates of various sizes were involved in Paleozoic orogenic events. For example, the microcontinent of Avalonia separated from Gondwana in the Early Ordovician and existed as a separate continent until it collided with Baltica during the Late Ordovician-Early Silurian and then with Laurentia later in the Silurian. During the times when the microplates were separate from the larger continental masses they developed their own unique floral and faunal assemblages.
