In the amber deposits along the Baltic Sea, scientists were amazed to find insects from every region of the earth. Develop a hypothesis that may explain their findings.

The amber in the Baltic Sea has exposed insects from every region of the planet trapped in it. This can be a nice evidence about the continental drift theory. The continents have been moving for billions of years now. While they are not merged today, an we have multiple separate continents, that has not always been the case. In the past, the continents have all been merged into one enormous landmass, a supercontinent. The name given tot his supercontinent is Pangaea. Since all the continents were merged, thus representing one continuous land mass, the living organisms were able to move all throughout it, including the species of insects as well. As the movement was free, the amber in what is now the Baltic Sea, managed to preserve insects numerous different species of insects, which later, as Pangaea started to break apart, were separated and lived in different land masses as they got isolated from each other.
