The author specifies that the changes involved most of the modern continents; however, the Russian platform was notable for its stability and no tectonism for over 3.5 billion years, which stimulated development of different forms of life and evolutionary processes on this territory. Thus, the author arrives at the conclusion that favorable conditions could stimulate the appearance of most wildlife species, including humans, in this area.
