I am pretty sure humans would be able to survive on pangaea. The only problems that could happen is drastic temperature changes and water would be hard to transport to countries that are landlock. War would wage on for territory/land. The only good sides would be that traveling becomes faster and probably better communication with people from different lands.
Now if your talking about if we would be able to survive the continents suddenly coming together then thats a whole other story. There would be earthquakes and lava would spew from under the land. If people are still alive would have to run from all the terror. But luckily since we are a technology thriving worls we should be able to surpass that.
Hopes it answers you question. :)
The Pangaea super-continent no longer exists because it has broken up into the continents that exist today, as a result of continental drift caused by convection currents in the earth's mantle.
pangaea is the supercontinent that existed millions of years ago, when all the continents were together in one large. supercontinent. Pangaea ultima is the supercontinent that is predicted to form in the next 250 million years. So to be simple, pangaea already happened and pangaea ultima is predicted to happen. :)
No. Pangaea is thought to have broken up about 240 million years ago during the Triassic Period, while early man only evolved during the last few million years.
Pangaea
When Pangaea split in two, there where two island landmasses. The Northern landmass was Laurasia. The Southern landmass was Gondwanaland.
yes
It is possible that Pangaea might happen again in around 250 million years from now and is planned to be called Pangaea Ultima, but no one knows for sure yet. It is only a possible future supercontinent.
It is unlikely for Pangaea to reform in the exact same way, as plate tectonics are constantly moving and changing the Earth's surface. However, continents continue to drift and merge over millions of years, so a supercontinent may form in the distant future.
Pangaea is from the Earth. It was always there
The likelihood of Pangaea happening again is extremely low because tectonic plates move at very slow rates and current plate dynamics do not suggest a future supercontinent formation. The movement of plates is driven by complex geophysical forces that are unpredictable in terms of future supercontinent formation.
It is not likely that Pangaea will form again as tectonic plates continue to shift and drift apart due to geological processes. The movement of these plates shapes the Earth's surface over millions of years, which makes a reunification of Pangaea improbable in the foreseeable future.
The effect of a future Pangaea on the formation of coal will be that of a marked increase as continents collide against each other.
Yes
The movement of the plates will not reassemble exactly what existed in the past, however it is highly probable that at some point in the future the continents will again merge into one large supercontinent. But it won't be identical to Pangaea.
no
The formation of a future Pangaea will affect the availability of water for society by closing off the access to certain bodies of water.
pangea happened be cause the contnents where stuck together
