About 200 million years ago,there were no crustal plates to speak of.There was only one supper continent,pangea.This was an idea suggested by Alfred Weneger, a german scientist.According to him,Pangea broke into pieces (crustal plates) and slowly moved until they reached their present position
Pangaea broke into pieces due to the movement of Earth's tectonic plates. The process, known as plate tectonics, caused the supercontinent to gradually rift apart over millions of years, creating the separate continents that we see today. The movement of the plates continues to shape the Earth's surface through processes like seafloor spreading and subduction.
No. That was an early hypothesis proposed by Alfred Wegener, but such a thing is not actually possible. Pangaea was broken apart by a process called rifting, which is driven by processes within Earth.
The supercontinent that existed when all continents were connected is called Pangaea. Over time, Pangaea began to break apart due to tectonic movements, eventually forming the distinct continents we have today.
"Break into pieces" means to shatter or fragment something into smaller parts or components, usually as a result of force or pressure being applied.
Yes, an atom can break or split. This is the concept behind the atom bomb.
I'm unable to display images. Pangaea was a supercontinent that existed about 335 million years ago, merging most of Earth's landmasses into a single large landmass. You can find maps and illustrations of Pangaea by searching online.
Pangaea began to break up during the Triassic period, around 200 million years ago. This breakup eventually led to the formation of the continents we recognize today.

Pangaea began to break apart around 200 million years ago during the Mesozoic era. This breakup eventually led to the formation of the continents as we know them today.
Pangaea broke into two pieces when it became old and died
Pangaea
In the triassic period
Pangaea began to break apart during the Mesozoic Era, specifically in the Late Triassic period around 200 million years ago. This breakup eventually led to the formation of the continents as we know them today.
No, the Rockies formed as a consequence of the break-up of Pangaea.
about 175 million years ago.
When Pangaea broke apart into two pieces, the northern portion was called Laurasia and the southern portion was called Gondwana. These landmasses eventually formed the continents we have today.
Pangaea began to break up during the Early Jurassic period, which was approximately 200 million years ago. This breakup eventually led to the formation of separate continents as we know them today.
