Were the Appalachian mountains part of Pangaea?
Yes, the Appalachian mountains were formed during the assembly of the supercontinent Pangaea around 300 million years ago. They were originally much taller but have since eroded.
Did Pangaea have mountains?
Yes, Pangaea did have mountains. The formation of Pangaea involved the collision of various landmasses, leading to the creation of mountain ranges such as the Appalachian Mountains in North America and the Caledonian Mountains in Europe. These mountains gradually eroded over time due to processes like weathering and tectonic movements.
