What is the theory now known as of the Pangaea?
Pangaea is the theory that all the continents were all connected in the palezoic era or about 250 million years ago. This theory is supported by the evidence that fossils of animals have been found throughout many continents. other evidences have to do with the similarities of the continents that are said to have been connected during that time period (like the similarities between South America and West Africa). If you look at the map you can see that the continents also look like a puzzle that can be connected together. Geologists have studied the plate tectonics have have come to the conclusion that the theory of Pangaea is seemingly accurate.
