What caused pangaea to separate?
Plate Tectonics. Plate Tectonics are the sub-layers that lie underneath the Earth's surface. They can rub against together, smash together, or pull away from each other. This is what caused Pangaea to separate.

What pushes the layers of sedimentary rock back up?
Mostly plate tectonics, the movement of the plates composing the crust of our planet.
What is the theory that explains the slow movement of continents on the earth's surface?
The theory of the movement of peices of Earth's surface is that they break apart and they move everywhere around through the suface -& and the layers of the earth. this is what causes it being cold because all these peices move around and then the warm will break away and it will open up abd it will be cold.
How are minerals linked to plate tectonics?
Minerals Make up rocks, Which make up the layers of the Earth(Crust, Lithosphere, asthenosphere, and Mantle)(Minerals make up the inner and outter core). The layers of the earth(crust) make up plate tectonics; convection currents and Plates(made of rock)
How are these three layers identified the core the mantel and the crust?
by the plate tectonics
