If Pangaea never broke up, Earth would still likely have a single supercontinent surrounded by a single vast ocean. The distribution of species would be very different, as continents played a critical role in shaping biodiversity. Additionally, geological processes like mountain building and volcanism would likely be concentrated along the edges of the supercontinent.
The supercontinent that broke apart is called Pangaea. It split into Laurasia in the north and Gondwana in the south.
The supercontinent that broke up about 225 million years ago is called Pangaea.
The parts that Pangaea broke into are called tectonic plates. These plates make up the Earth's lithosphere and float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere below, moving slowly and causing continental drift.
Pangaea started to break up during the Triassic Period. It continued to split apart in the Jurassic Period and was almost complete in breaking up in the Cretaceous Period. After that it formed into the landmasses that we see today.
The supercontinent Pangaea broke up during the Mesozoic Era, specifically in the Jurassic Period. This breakup eventually led to the formation of the continents as we know them today.
Pangaea broke into Gondwanaland and Laurasia.
No. Pangaea broke up long before humans evolved.
Nothing with any detail; Pangaea broke up millions of years ago.
The process that broke up Pangaea is known as continental drift. This theory states that the Earth's continents were once joined together as one supercontinent and have since drifted apart to their current positions.

Pangaea
Pangaea is a super continent made up of all the world's modern-day landmasses joined together. Since plate tectonics are now seen as a true discovery, Pangaea later broke up into Laurasia and Gondwanaland, which eventually broke up into the continents we know today.
The two continents that formed when Pangaea broke apart are Laurasia in the north and Gondwana in the south. These two supercontinents eventually broke up further to form the continents we have today.
Pangaea don't no
