What is the modern theory of plate tectonics and what evidence is there to support it?
the modern theory is that all the continents used to be connected (Pangaea). The evidence is that the coastal boundaries fit together like a puzzle piece. another example is that the same species of animals are found on the coasts of the continents that once were touching
What is a pangaea plate?
A Pangaea plate is a Pangaea plate
What forms of science were used to help gather evidence for the existence of Pangaea?
Plate tectonics led to the theory of Pangaea.
What are the opposing views to the Pangaea theory?
There are no commonly accepted opposing scientific views on plate tectonics or the existence of the supercontinent Pangaea.
What is the theory of Pangea?
The theory of Pangaea was that the continents were once together and then were drifted apart due to plate tectonics.
How do observations of earthquakes and volcanic activity support theory of plate tectonics?
Observations of earthquakes and volcanic activity support the theory of plate tectonics because they both occur on boundaries. Boundaries are where plates meet and either converge, diverge or transform.
Are plate tectonic plate boundaries?
No, plate boundaries is part of the explanation of the Plate Tectonic theory:)
Which theory makes the occurrence of pangaea possible?
The theory of plate tectonics makes the occurrence of Pangaea possible. It suggests that the Earth's lithosphere is divided into several large plates that move and interact with each other over time. In the case of Pangaea, these plates came together to form a supercontinent before breaking apart again.

What is proof of theory of plate tectonics developed?
because of pangaea
What happen to the pangaea?
The plate boundaries underneath started the separate Pangaea into seven different continents as well as seven different plates
What is a pangaea plate?
A Pangaea plate is a Pangaea plate

Plate tectonics led to the theory of Pangaea.

Explain how the theory of plate tectonics relates to the formation and breakup of Pangaea?
