The correct answer is: They crossed a strip of land that existed between the two continents.
Early humans were able to cross from Asia to the Americas by crossing a strip of land that existed between the two continents called Beringia. This land bridge connected Siberia (Asia) and Alaska (North America). During the last Ice Age, which occurred around 20,000 years ago, much of Earth's water was frozen in glaciers. This caused a drop in sea level, exposing the Bering Strait. As a result, early humans were able to walk across the land bridge and settle in North America.
