Evidence supporting the existence of a single supercontinent, known as Pangaea, includes the jigsaw-like fit of the continents along their Coastlines, similarities in rock formations and mountain ranges across different continents, matching plant and animal fossils found on separate continents, and the alignment of ancient glacial deposits that suggest a single ice cap covering a large landmass. These pieces of evidence support the theory of plate tectonics and continental drift.
What else can I help you with?
What continent is known as the super continent?
The super continent was all the seven continents joined to Australia. This continent was larger than Asia .The continental drift has changed this super continent and now many think that Asia is the super continent but Gondwana will always be The Supercontinent. I am 12,not 32 ,12!
When will Pangaea reform?
There is no way of knowing when Pangea will form again, but scientists suggest that it will take 250 million years to form another mega-continent. The new name for the super continent will be Pangea Ultima.
What evidence is here to show that the continents today were once from one super continent?
If you put all of the Continents together they form one big thing, and they seem to fit just like a jigsaw puzzle,Scientist seem to believe that there was one big super Continent that was called Pangea
Was pangaea the only super-continent to existed?
No, Pangaea was not the only super-continent to have existed. There have been several super-continents throughout Earth's history, including Rodinia, Pannotia, and Gondwana, before Pangaea formed about 335 million years ago.

What hypothesis states that the continents were once continents were once joined to form a single super continent?
If put together, they would fit perfectly into one huge super continent like a puzzle.
Was earth made up of a single continent that later separated into several continents?
That is what's believed, yes. The super-continent is called Pangaea/Pangea.
What was the single super continent that existed before plate motions moved the continents to their present locations known as?
Pangaea.
What was the name of the one single continent?
Pangaea "Pan"means 'entire' and "Gaea" mean 'Earth' in Ancient Greek.
What is the super continent that once made up the single land mass on the earth?
Pangea was the first continent. It Existed during the Paleozoic and Mesozoic eras, forming 300 million years ago
When will Pangaea reform?
There is no way of knowing when Pangea will form again, but scientists suggest that it will take 250 million years to form another mega-continent. The new name for the super continent will be Pangea Ultima.
Was the theory of super continent originally accepted by scientist?
When German meteorologist Alfred Wegener first published his theory on Pangea (super continent) he was widely ridiculed for it. Some of the reaction to his theory on continental shift and a super continent was actually quite hostile. The idea was first put forward in 1912 but it wasn't until the 1950's that his idea was really rethought. By then evidence of continental drift was starting to support his ideas.

Wegener thought that all of the present continents were once joined 245 million years ago in a landmass he called?
The last super-continent is called Pangaea, which was formed about 245 million years ago. Some believe that Pangaea wasn't the first time all the continents were combined. There is evidence that there was another super-continent way before 245 million years ago that is called Rodinia (which separated for a while, then formed back together to form Pangaea, the latest super-continent).
What is the name for the Super Contienent?
The Super Continent was called Pangaea.
