While researching a topic, a student has taken the following notes:
- A supercontinent is a single landmass made up of most or all of Earth's continents.
- Over time, continents merge together to form supercontinents, which then break apart.
- This process is believed to take hundreds of millions of years and is known as the supercontinent cycle.
- Ur was a supercontinent that formed about 3.1 billion years ago.
- Pangaea was a supercontinent that formed about 300 million years ago.
The student wants to emphasize the order in which the supercontinents were formed. Which choice most effectively uses relevant information from the notes to accomplish this goal?
