Why do you think our plants continents look the way they do today?
The shape of the continents is mainly due to water erosion.
What layer of the earth makes up these plates and what layer are the continents look the way they do today?
rocks
What layer of earth makes up these plates and what layer are the continents look the way they do today?
rocks
Why do our continents look like they do today?
The continents look the way they do today due to the movement of tectonic plates over millions of years. Plate tectonics have caused the continents to drift apart, collide, or slide past each other, leading to the current configuration. This process also influences the shapes of coastlines and mountain ranges.
How did earths continents look in dinosaur era?
Much different than they are today.
Do the continents will look the same way in million years as they do today?
Mostly. Although some positions will shift and Coastlines will change. However, it is not enough to be considered a difference.
Why do the continents look the way that they do?
The current shape and arrangement of continents is due to the movement of tectonic plates. Over millions of years, the plates have shifted, collided, and pulled apart, leading to the formation of the continents we see today. This process, known as plate tectonics, continues to shape the Earth's surface.
Why do your continents look like they do?
The shape of continents is the result of tectonic plate movement over millions of years. This movement causes landmasses to drift apart, collide, or slide alongside each other, shaping the continents as we see them today. Erosion and other natural forces also play a role in shaping the landforms on the continents.
What did earths continents look like?
Approximately 300 million years ago, the Earth's continents were joined together in a supercontinent known as Pangaea. Over time, Pangaea split apart to form the continents as we recognize them today.
Why does are planet's continents look the way they do today?
Continental Drift Their actual shapes are those of the Continental Slope outlines, but these generally and approximately follow the visible coasts at lesser or greater distances off-shore.

Why and how does California look this way?
what way? If you are referring to the way that the coast looks from afar there are theorists that believe that all the continents were one large land mass a few hundred million years ago. Over time these continents broke apart from each other. Due to this and the expansion and deterioration of different coast lines leaves us the way land looks the way it does today.
