sticke
The climate of the two continents is almost the same and with the same ancient organisms.
13. What information can be derived about Antarctica having fossils of ancient plants and animals? *

Antarctica drifted to the Southern hemisphere because of the melting of glaciers that traps the plants and animals.
Antarctica has a very nice climate that caused these organisms to migrate and stay.
