What are some pieces of evidence to support the theory of continental drift?
The 8 pieces of evidence are that 1) the land masses fit together like a puzzle; 2) the fossil evidence is similar; 3) the age and type of rocks are the same; 4) the mountain chains seem to continue from continent to continent; 5) climate changes; 6) coal deposits in the eastern U.S. and Siberia; 7) sea floor spreading; and 8) paleomagnetism.pangea, all continents were once joined, there are fossil remains to prove it

A short paragraph about continental drift?
First of all continental drift happened after Pangea. Pangea was a time when all of the continents were formed together. Then platetectonics moved which caused earth quakes. The earth quakes made the continents drift, and is called continental drift. To learn more on continental drifts and plate tectonics visit http;//www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0001765.html
Pangaea was an ancient supercontinent made up of?
It was made up of our land masses today but continental drift came and moved the continents
How did pangaea split?

It hasn't moved. The world today as is was when it was created.

Wegener's theory that the continents slowly moved over earths surface became known as?
pangaea
Was Pangaea located anywhere else?
Seeing as how is was around in the mesozoic and paleozoic eras, yes it has moved. Every continent has moved since it was created or formed.

pangaea
On what continent is Antarctica?
Antarctica is a continent.There are classically seven: North America, South America, Asia, Europe, Africa, Australia, and Antarctica.Historically, Australia, Antarctica, and India were part of a continental mass that separated from the supercontinent of Pangaea. India separated first, then Australia, and both moved north.Antarctica is a continent.Antarctica is its own continent.
What was the single super continent that existed before plate motions moved the continents to their present locations known as?
Pangaea.
How would it affect a force of gravity between two objects if moved farther apart?
The gravitational force F between two bodies of masses M1 and M2 separated by a distance R varies as the product of the two masses and inversely as the square of the distance between them. F = (G) x (M1 x M2) / R^2
Is continental drift and Pangaea the same thing that happend in or on the continents?
yes and no, the continental drift is Wegener's idea that the continents slowly moved apart. Pangea is the name of all the continents. Pangaea means "all lands"

I'm pretty sure North America
