Modern continents began to take shape when the Atlantic Ocean began forming. That occured during the early Cretaceous, around 145 million years ago.
Modern continents began to take shape around 200 million years ago during the breakup of the supercontinent Pangaea. This process resulted in the formation of the continents we see today, as they drifted into their current positions.
The movement of continents is driven by plate tectonics, which is a slow process. Over millions of years, the movement of tectonic plates causes the continents to shift positions. Factors such as the size and composition of the plates, as well as the heat within the Earth's mantle, all contribute to the gradual movement of the continents to their current locations.
Continental drift occurs over millions of years, and the process of continents converging can take anywhere from 50-200 million years depending on the speed of the movement of tectonic plates. The current rate of movement of the continents is about the same speed at which fingernails grow.
The shapes of continents are a result of tectonic plate movement, erosion, and other geological processes over millions of years. They vary in size, location, and orientation due to these factors. Continents can have diverse shapes, such as long and narrow like South America or more rounded like Africa.
About 335 million years ago, Earth's continents were connected in a supercontinent known as Pangaea. Over time, Pangaea broke apart into separate landmasses that eventually drifted to their current positions.
It took millions of years for the continents to come together to form the supercontinent Pangaea, which existed around 335 million years ago. The process of the continents drifting apart and coming back together, known as plate tectonics, is a slow geological process that occurs over millions of years.
It depends on how fit you are to begin with.
Pangea is when all the continents were conected. Pangea was altogether 225 million years ago.
Depends on what flute you are discussing...but the modern orchestral flute bore is cylindrical. (Piccolo, by the way, is conical.)

for as long as it has had continents
when all the continents where connected a long time ago they formed super continents. example: Pangaea
Assuming you mean long distance running marathons, the marathon was one of the original modern Olympic events that took place in 1896.
yes
long shape
Immediately, nothing. However over long periods of time, weathering can take place. This is where the wind patterns begin to shape and carve the rock.
Yes. The A in shape has a long A sound, as in tape. The E is silent.
