How long ago was plate tectonics developed?

Probably about 3.2 billion years ago

The plate tectonics are the mechanisms that started to drift Pangaea (super continent) into separate continents 200billion years ago into the continents we have today. :D

Rodinia is a supercontinent that formed around 1100 million years ago and lasted until its break-up about 750 million years ago. Rodinia is evidence of plate tectonics since the plates shift positions throughout geologic time.

Mainly because it happened so long ago - "erosion" wiped out essentially all the direct evidence long ago. Erosion includes things like plate tectonics and meteor strikes as well as wind and rain.

No, Pangaea was a supercontinent that existed about 250 million years ago. The German word for plate tectonics is (die) Plattentektonik.

Because all of the rocks that were around when Earth formed have been recycled by plate tectonics and erosion. Hoped I helped!!

approximately 1,000 years ago

Mainland Japan originally split off from the rest of the Asian continent approximately fifteen million years ago, during the Miocene epoch. Its smaller islands developed later on due to millions of years of plate tectonics.

a very long long time ago

@ his time plate tectonics was not theorized. they didnt know yet that continental and oceanic crust are seperate. it was thought that continents were drifting on water and moved some million years ago due to erosion,etc! hence the "continental drift theory"

Pangaea is the name of the super continent that existed about 250 million years ago, before they separated to form the continents we know today. It has to do with plate tectonics because the theory of continental drift (proposed by Alfred Wegener) says that the plates are moving because of sea-floor spreading

2000 years ago, when the two plate tectonics pushed up against each other and made mount Stromboli

Norway "developed" a long time ago! Probably before wherever you are did!

The Earth's crust is formed of plates that are in constant slow movement. Scientists believe that this movement began 3.2 billion years ago. Before plate tectonics, the Earth's surface was shaped by different processes.

"Smaller terrestrial planets like Mars cooled more rapidly than Earth and lost its internal heat much earlier in their history. Mars experienced plate techtonics very early in its history (4 billion years ago) when it was still hot. When the interior cooled, plate techtonics stopped." - as quoted in Chapter 4 "Plate Tectonics" on page 101 from the textbook The Good Earth: Introduction To Earth Science

Pangea is the name of the supercontinent that existed on earth billions of years ago. Through plate tectonics, parts of Pangea drifted apart to form the continents we know today.

Plate tectonics. Continents are the exposed (from the oceans) geological areas of tectonic plates. Continents can also be on top of more than one tectonic plate. When these plates move, continents move with them. Millions of years ago, continents were split apart and also created by tectonic plate movement.

If your question is when the earth was created, then the answer is 4.6 billion years ago. plate tectonics started to happen a few billion years later when the earth cooled enough to form a crust.

The Chinese language was developed a very long time ago. Im guessing around BC. hope this helps!

For the most part, all of the continents are equal in age and were split from larger continents millions of years ago through plate tectonics which keeps surface area moving under and over plates.

Long shore drift is the movement of material along a beach. The material would be washed onto the beach then another wave would pick it up and move it further down. This is how beaches can move along the coast line. This has nothing to do with plate tectonics. Continental drift is related to plate tectonics. It is the movement of the continents by the plates underneath them and varies from 1cm to 15cm every year. Millions of years ago the continents were all connected in a super continent called Pangaea until they were pushed apart by the plates underneath them.

It is thought that the summit of Mount Everest started at the bottom of the ancient Tethys Sea, the motion of the Indian sub continental plate and the urasian continental plate colliding, about 30 - 50 million years ago, caused the mountain to rise up and become the highest mountain on the Earth.

The Andes Mountains are locaed in South America. The Andes formed during the Cretaceous period (about 138 million to about 65 million years ago) when the Pacific crustal plate began to slowly slide beneath the South American plate, uplifting and folding the sedimentary rocks that comprise the Andes (see Plate Tectonics).

it was one huge continent called Pangea. Over the years they plates broke and moved. Because of "Plate Tectonics", the land has moved causing the continents and land we have today.
