What has happened to Pangaea between 200million years ago and today?
Pangaea has broken up into the continents of Eurasia, Africa, North and South America, and Australia.
What was the process that broke up Pangaea called?
The process that broke up Pangaea is known as continental drift. This theory states that the Earth's continents were once joined together as one supercontinent and have since drifted apart to their current positions.
Why does the Pangaea supercontinent no longer exist?
The Pangaea super-continent no longer exists because it has broken up into the continents that exist today, as a result of continental drift caused by convection currents in the earth's mantle.
What obstacles has Katy Perry faced?
Katy Perry has faced many. You should look them up. Like her heart being broken.
What was the land and sea like in the Mesozoic era?
The Mesozoic period (roughly 180MYA) was a period when much change was happening in the Earth's continental arrangement. The final stage of the break up of the supercontinent Pangaea is generally considered to have taken place in this period. Land and sea were different to how we see them today. Pangaea was on the onset of forming 2 smaller supercontinents called Laurasia and Gondwana. The Atlantic ocean had not yet formed. The Himalayas were not there. It was a very different picture to what we see today. Have a look at this page for further details concerning the break up of Pangaea. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pangaea
When did Pangaea break apart?
Pangaea began to break up in the Jurassic Period about 180 million years ago and was mostly broken up by 100 million years ago.
Do you think earthquakes happened millions of years ago?
It is certain... look-up "Pangaea" or (List of supercontinents).
Who or what lived on Pangaea?
No. Pangaea broke up long before humans evolved.
What evidence is there of Pangaea?
Evidence of Pangaea includes the fit of the modern continents, similarities in rock formations across continents, distribution of fossils found on continents that were once part of Pangaea, and geological structures found in different continents that line up when Pangaea is reconstructed. Additionally, the mapping of ancient climate belts and glacial deposits provide further evidence of the supercontinent.
Who came up with the Pangaea?
Alfred Wegener came up with the name Pangaea which means "all land".
Did humans live during the time of Pangaea?
No. Pangaea is thought to have broken up about 240 million years ago during the Triassic Period, while early man only evolved during the last few million years.
How has earths appearance changed since pangaea?
Since Pangaea existed, Earth's appearance has changed due to the continuous movement of tectonic plates, which has led to the fragmentation of Pangaea into the continents we see today. This movement has created new mountain ranges, oceans, and land formations, shaping Earth's current landscape. Additionally, factors like erosion, glaciation, and volcanic activity have further altered the surface of the planet.
