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 separated into Laurasia (North America, Europe, and Asia) and Gondwana (South America, Africa, Antarctica, Australia, and the Indian subcontinent) during the Mesozoic Era.
When did the Pangaea split into two landmasses?
Pangaea began to break apart around 175 million years ago during the Jurassic period. This breakup eventually led to the formation of two separate landmasses known as Laurasia (in the north) and Gondwana (in the south).
How long ago were all the earths continents connected?
About 335 million years ago, Earth's continents were connected in a supercontinent known as Pangaea. Over time, Pangaea broke apart into separate landmasses that eventually drifted to their current positions.
