These continents once formed a supercontinent called Pangaea. Eventually the Pangaea split into two halves and this formed the northern continent of Laurasia and the southern continent of Gondwanaland.
Africa, Antarctica, and South America. (plus Antarctica - Gondwana the super-continent was made up of 4 present day continents).
The continent Gondwana existed primarily during the Paleozoic and Mesozoic eras, between about 600 to 180 million years ago. It gradually broke apart due to the process of continental drift, leading to the formation of the current continents we have today.
The southern continent that existed 200 million years ago was called Gondwana.
The world's oldest (of the seven existing) and smallest continent is Australia.
Cenozoa is not an ancient continent. Instead, it is an era in the geological time scale that started around 66 million years ago and continues to the present day. Pangaea, Laurasia, and Gondwana were ancient supercontinents that existed before breaking apart into the continents we recognize today.
It should be 'continents' - in plural. 3 continents were not part of Gondwana super-continent. They were North America, Europe and Asia - which formed the other super-continent Laurasia. The other 4 continents formed the Gondwana. They were South America, Africa, Australia and Antarctica. The Indian sub-continent was part of Gondwana, then separated from it, traveled north and jammed with Asia. The collision of India and Asia created the Himalayas.
Africa, Antarctica, and South America. (plus Antarctica - Gondwana the super-continent was made up of 4 present day continents).
The continent Gondwana existed primarily during the Paleozoic and Mesozoic eras, between about 600 to 180 million years ago. It gradually broke apart due to the process of continental drift, leading to the formation of the current continents we have today.
Australia is considered the youngest continent on Earth, having separated from the supercontinent Gondwana about 50 million years ago.
The southern continent that existed 200 million years ago was called Gondwana.
Antarctica has belonged to several continents. To name a few: Pangea and Gondwana.
the super continent of gondwana to the south,the continent of siberia to the north ,and early formation of the small continene of euramerica in between
The world's oldest (of the seven existing) and smallest continent is Australia.
The bedrock that underlies the Antarctic continent was formed about 540 million years ago during the formation of the supercontinent Gondwana.
The Mesozoic Supercontinent is known as Gondwana or Gondwanaland.
Cenozoa is not an ancient continent. Instead, it is an era in the geological time scale that started around 66 million years ago and continues to the present day. Pangaea, Laurasia, and Gondwana were ancient supercontinents that existed before breaking apart into the continents we recognize today.
The single continent that split into two continents called Gondwana and Laurasia is Pangaea. Pangaea was a supercontinent that existed about 335-175 million years ago, before eventually breaking apart into these two landmasses which later drifted to form the continents we know today.
