What caused breakup of Pangaea?
The earth is broken up into plates. Even when the world was called Pangaea, there were still plates. The plates begin to move, however, only about 1 cm a year. This is why we now have continents. Scientists predict that a few 100 years from now, the world will look even more different. If you type in the earths tech tonic plates into wikipedia, it might help you a little more than i did.
How are earths continents linked?
Earth's continents are linked by tectonic plate movements. The Earth's crust is divided into several large plates that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere below. These plates are continuously moving, causing the continents to drift slowly over time. This movement is known as plate tectonics.
What will the mid Atlantic ridge look like in a million of years?
In a million years, the Mid-Atlantic Ridge may continue to grow as tectonic plates move apart, leading to new seafloor spreading and volcanic activity. This could result in the ridge becoming more pronounced and longer over time.

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.
Do rift valleys show movement in two plates?
no, because, the two plates colide and become unmatched and it may look 100years old,when its really 500 years old.
