Question

multiple choice 2 points. which factor caused pangaeas interior regions to become vast deserts? lack of ocean moisture reaching the continental interior. high mountain ranges blocking rainfall. extensive polar ice caps. ocean currents.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In large land - masses like Pangaea, the interior is far from the ocean. Moisture from the ocean has difficulty reaching these areas due to the great distance. High mountain ranges can also act as barriers to the movement of moist air masses, but the primary factor for the aridity of Pangaea's interior is the lack of ocean moisture reaching it. Ocean currents and polar ice caps are not the main reasons for the interior becoming deserts.

Answer:

Lack of ocean moisture reaching the continental interior
