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 did Pangea break apart?
It broke apart due to the magma beneath and earth's crust. These plates float on the top of the magma.(crust=plates)
What is the supercontinent that separated into smaller land masses due to continental drift called?
Pangaea
When is the next ice age due?
Don't worry, the next Ice Age is not due for at least 100,000 years, but that is only a predictions based on scientists Info, It is based on patterns in the world.
Many scientists believe the greenhouses gases?
Many scientists believe that the greenhouses gases have contributed to the climate change due to increased concentrations of the gases in the atmosphere courtesy of human activities such as deforestation, and through fossil fuels.
The supercontinent that separated into present-day continents due to continental drift was called?
Pangaea
Idea that all continents were once a single landmass but are now separate is called?
This idea is called the theory of continental drift, which suggests that all continents were once part of a single landmass called Pangaea that later split and drifted apart over millions of years.
How did the supercontinent change to seven continents in the time of the dinosaurs?
The supercontinent of Pangea began to rift and break apart between 175-200 million years ago. At first it separated into two landmasses, Laurasia and Gondwanaland. Laurasia separated into Asia, Europe, and North America, while Gondwanaland separated into South America, Africa, Australia, and Antarctica.This was all due to plate tectonics pulling apart the continents.
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.
Can solutions change or separate?
Solutions can be change due to change in volume, temperature, and or pressure. Some solutions can be separated. For example, scientists use the process of distillation to separate a solution of alcohol and water.
What are two reasons the continents didn't fit perfectly together while they were pangaea?
Two reasons the continents didn't fit perfectly together while they were Pangaea are the effects of erosion and sea level changes. Over time, erosion of the coastlines and movement of tectonic plates caused the shapes of the continents to change. Sea level changes due to factors like glaciation also altered the coastlines and made the fit less perfect.
How many different shapes of snowflakes do scientists think exist?
due to strong hydrogen bonding between water as compare to ice form
Which country split apart into several?
continent. Pangea split into Laurasia and then all our countries slowly split apart due to the tectonic plates
How did Pangea break apart?
It broke apart due to the magma beneath and earth's crust. These plates float on the top of the magma.(crust=plates)
How was Africa created?
As far as science can infer, billions of years ago the continent of Africa split off from Pangea due to shifting tectonic plates.

If a woman is legally separated and gets pregnant by another man will it automatically be the husbans due to marriage?
How did Madagascar form?
The island of Madagascar formed when it was detached from the once giant land of Pangea. It was once connected to a larger mass, and broke away due to tectonic plates.Ê
