Fossil of sea animals found on mountaintops show that the earth’s crust has been lifted above its original level.
Option C.
Explanation:
- The earth’s crust has undergone tremendous changes and has been lifted out of its original level.
- Initially there existed a large sea known as the Tethys Sea, and plate tectonic movement led to the rising of the mountains of the Himalayan region, and this was proved by the occurrence of sea animal fossils in the mountains.
- Areas of Nepal and Tibet have recurrent occurrence of these fossils especially around the areas of the Gandaki river beds.
