The 15 tectonic plates are rigid in the center and have geological activity at the boundaries (edges). This means that:

the nitrogen cycle provides nitrogen to the ecosystem from the atmosphere, ground and oceans. nitrogen is an important component of complex molecules such as amino acids and nucleotides, which lead to the creation of proteins and dna, the building blocks of all life. plants absorb nitrogen in the form of ammonium, nitrate ion and, on rare occasions, as amino acids. animals receive nitrogen necessary for biological processes from feeding on living or dead organic matter.

they have identical fossils of organisms that have evolved over time.

both have animal fossils preserved in them due to weathering and erosion.

they contain different fossils because life on earth has changed through time.

the fossils in them were formed on the surface of earth due to exposure to sunlight.
