Why was St. Louis under water during the Cambrian/Ordovician (when the fossils we saw on the field trip formed)?

What can cause the ocean level to rise, relative to the land?

Other continents were as well

What happens if the plate motions are faster?

Page 11: Structure of a Continent Figure 13-3. How are continental plates formed? Figure 13-4.

The plates had been moving fast – the ocean seafloor was higher on average, and ocean water spilled up onto continents.
