Solution
The correct option is B Panthalassa
Panthalassa was the superocean
that surrounded the supercontinent Pangaea. A superocean is an ocean that
surrounds a supercontinent. It is less commonly defined as any ocean larger than
the current Pacific Ocean. The movement of Earth's tectonic plates
formed Pangaea and ultimately broke it apart. Pangaea existed during the
Permian and Triassic geological time periods, which were times of great change.
