The name Pangaea appeared in 1928 during a symposium to discuss Alfred Wegener's theory of continental drift.
Alfred Wegener named his single land mass the Urkontinent or Pangaa. This has passed into general use as Pangaea.
Pangaea. It means, "all the Earth."
According to Wikipedia, the term Pangaea appeared in 1928 during a symposium to discuss Alfred Wegener's theory of continental drift.
all of the continents were once one super-continent called pangea.
The theory of Pangaea was originated by Alfred Wegener, a German meteorologist, and geophysicist in the early 20th century. He proposed that the continents were once connected in a supercontinent that he named Pangaea, which later broke apart and drifted to their current positions.
Alfred Wegener.Alfred Wegener was a German scientist and proposed Pangaeaa million/billion years ago, all of the land formed together and was called Pangaea
At the beginning of the Triassic period, there were no dinosaurs on Pangaea, the super continent. At the end of the period, it is not known exactly how many there were. There are about 700 named dinosaurs.
Actually, Pangaea was all the continents smashed together. But, the two continents that broke apart after Pangaea was created were named "Gondwanaland" and "Laurasia".
Nope
One, it was named Pangaea
Mountains, Volcanoes, Earthquakes
It is unspecified by scientists, though they have theorized that Pangaea could have been a possibility, due to the fact that the continents are always moving. Plus, if there only was one continent, then the oceans would all collect together, forming a superocean in addition to the supercontinent of Pangaea.
