When Pangaea was in existence, the main animals were reptiles and amphibians. During this time, birds developed also.
What are some main facts about pangaea?
Pangaea was a supercontinent that all continents are close to each other and they where separated after 200 million years ago and started to drift in any direction in the world
What is the Pangaea theory?
The Pangaea theory is one that states that all present continents were once together and collectively known as a 'supercontinent' called a Pangaea. The word 'Pangaea' means 'all lands' in Greek, accurately defining the way the continents were 200 millions years ago before it split up. These split-up pieces drifted slowly apart and became the way they are today. Even until now, the shape of the Earth surface is still changing, and it will be forever, as long as the mantle underneath the Earth's crust gets heated and convection currents in the magma keeps dragging the plates.The Pangaea theory was treated with much skepticsm when it was first raised. But since then, there have been much evidence to support this theory.The Pangaea theory is the theory that once all the continents consisted of one large super-continent called Pangaea and that there was one massive ocean called the Panthalassa Ocean.
What is the northern part of Pangaea?
The northern part of Pangaea was known as Laurasia. It formed from the breakup of the Pangea supercontinent during the Mesozoic era, about 200 million years ago. Laurasia eventually split into North America, Europe, and Asia.

Continent of today were part of the gondwana landjustify the statement in not less than 100words?
Gondwana was a supercontinent that existed around 500 million years ago and included landmasses that would later split and form the continents we know today. Evidence for the Gondwana supercontinent includes geological similarities, rock formations, and fossil evidence found across separate continents. For instance, the fit of the continents along their coastlines, matching mountain ranges, and similar plant and animal species provide strong support for the theory. Additionally, the presence of unique flora and fauna on different continents that were once part of Gondwana further confirms this ancient landmass's existence.
