What effect did continental drift have on pangaea?
Continental drift caused Pangaea, the supercontinent, to break apart over millions of years, leading to the formation of separate continents as we know them today. The movement of the continents due to plate tectonics continues to influence Earth's geology, climate, and biodiversity.
What geologic era did Pangaea break apart?
