Pangaea refers to the super continent that existed before each of the pieces eventually drifted apart into the seven continents that exist today. Scientists believe Pangaea broke apart 200 million years ago.
The supercontinent that broke apart is called Pangaea. It split into Laurasia in the north and Gondwana in the south.
Pangaea split apart due to the movement of tectonic plates over millions of years. This process, known as continental drift, caused the supercontinent to gradually break up into the continents we see today. The movement of the plates continues today, with some continents still drifting apart while others are converging.
Pangaea broke apart due to plate tectonics, specifically the movement of the Earth's lithosphere plates. This movement caused the continents to drift apart over millions of years, eventually forming the continents as we know them today.
The theory of Pangaea was proposed by Alfred Wegener in 1912. Wegener suggested that the continents were once connected in a supercontinent known as Pangaea and have since drifted apart.
The Pangaea began to break down about 200 billion years ago.
Well, there is a theory of plate tectonics, which is the movement of plates on the lithosphere, which is the surface of the earth. The Pangaea was actually the first land form before it split apart by convection currents,(as far as we know) and other forces that would move the plates. So Pangaea got together by the same way it spread apart.

africa
because in the time of the dinosaurs all of the continents were together in a super continent called Pangaea. Afterwards the continents spread apart taking the dinosaurs with them
Pangaea broke apart due to plate tectonics, specifically the movement of the Earth's lithosphere plates. This movement caused the continents to drift apart over millions of years, eventually forming the continents as we know them today.
Actually, Pangaea was all the continents smashed together. But, the two continents that broke apart after Pangaea was created were named "Gondwanaland" and "Laurasia".
Pangaea don't no
it looks like this.
The Mesozoic Era.
The single landmass that existed before breaking apart into the continents we have today is known as Pangaea.
