Which two large landmasses formed when Pangaea first started to separate into separate continents?
When Pangaea first started to separate, two large landmasses formed: Laurasia in the north and Gondwana in the south.
Which of Earths oceans was created by the breakup of the supercontinent Pangaea?
The Atlantic Ocean was created by the breakup of the supercontinent Pangaea. As Pangaea began to separate into the continents we know today, the Atlantic Ocean formed in between them through the process of seafloor spreading.
How many stages do scientists hypothesis there are to pangaea?
Scientists hypothesize that there are two main stages to the formation of Pangaea: the assembly stage, during which the continents were moving closer together, and the breakup stage, when Pangaea began to split into separate continents.
When did the supercontinent Pangaea start to break up?
Pangaea began to break up during the Early Jurassic period, around 200 million years ago. The process of continental drift led to the formation of separate landmasses that eventually became the continents as we know them today.
What caused pangaea to separate?
Plate Tectonics. Plate Tectonics are the sub-layers that lie underneath the Earth's surface. They can rub against together, smash together, or pull away from each other. This is what caused Pangaea to separate.
What is a supercontinent that continued to separate?

What happen to the pangaea?
The plate boundaries underneath started the separate Pangaea into seven different continents as well as seven different plates
Why I mean besides the main continent Pangaea were there any island like hawaii Easter Island etc Were there any islands during Pangaea?
During the time of Pangaea, most landmasses were concentrated together as a supercontinent, so there weren't many individual islands like Hawaii or Easter Island. Most of the Earth's surface was part of Pangaea, with few separate islands. It was only after the breakup of Pangaea that the continents shifted to create separate islands as we see them today.

Did pangaea separate into four continents?
No, Pangaea separated into two main supercontinents called Laurasia and Gondwana. These two supercontinents eventually broke apart to form the continents we have today.

What are the two continents that pangaea separate into?
Pangaea broke up into Gondwanaland and Laurasia over 200 million years ago.
