Scientists have evidence that Glossopteris was found in what is now India, Antarctica, Australia, and Madagascar. What does this tell you about the position of the continents 225 million years ago?

these continents were joined as a single landmass  

Explanation:

Alfred Wegener proposed the 'Continental Drift Hypothesis' which stated continents were joined into a single great landmass called Pangaea. Pangea was a supercontinent that was assembled during the late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic eras, from about 330 to 200 million years ago. During the early Mesozoic, Pangea began to separate into continents observed today. It is for that reason that the same fossils can be found in very different geographic-climatic regions, evidencing that in the past continents were joined into larger landmasses.
