The Continental drift
What was the climate for Pangaea?
Turtles
What was the climate center of pangaea?
warm
Explain how the theory of plate tectonics relates to the formation and breakup of Pangaea?
idont even know
The breakup of pangaea is a process that is continuing today?
The breakup of the Pangea is a process that is continuing today. The Atlantic ocean is broadening, and the Pacific is shrinking at the rate of approximately an inch a year.
Did the breakup of Pangaea resulted in warm wet global climates?
False, the breakup of Pangaea did not result in warm, wet global climates.
What was the effect of the breakup of pangaea?
The continental droft
What are the stages of the breakup of pangaea?
The Continental drift
Who proposed the breakup of Pangaea?
Alfred Wegener
Which era marked the beginning of the breakup of Pangaea?
Paleozoic
How did Pangaea affect evolution?
Evolution was not the cause of the breakup of Pangaea. Pangaea broke up by a process called rifting. Upwelling in Earth's mantle started to pull the conteinent apart. As the curst thinned, it led to the formation of volcanoes, which generated new crust, helping to push the continent apart. Evolution is the process by which groups of organisms change over time. While the breakup of Pangaea undoubtedly affected the course of evolution, evolution had nothing to do with causing the breakup.
How did pangaea breakup?
Pangaea broke apart due to the movement of tectonic plates, which caused the supercontinent to gradually split into separate landmasses. This shift in the Earth's crust created the Atlantic Ocean as it is today and reshaped the continents into their current positions.
Did the breakup of Pangaea begin during the Cenozoic era?
age of reptiles
What was the climate for Pangaea?
Turtles
What continent was on the south pole during Pangaea?
None, Antarctica has only drifted there in the last 200 million years, following the breakup of Pangaea.
What was the climate center of pangaea?
warm
Did the breakup of Pangaea have a effect on dinosaur extinction?
no, scientists have recently concluded that a asteroid killed them
