Explain Gondwana land in five points
  • 1 answers

Komal Prasad 7 years, 3 months ago

  • Gondwana land is the southern part of the ancient super continent Pangea with Angara Land in the northern part.
  • India's oldest landmass, i.e. the Peninsula part, was a part of the Gondwana land.
  • The Gondwana land included India, Australia, South Africa, South America and Antarctica as one single land mass.
  • The convectional currents split the crust into a number of pieces, thus leading to the drifting of the Indo-Australian plate after being separated from the Gondwana land, towards north.
  • The northward drift resulted in the collision of the plate with the much larger Eurasian Plate. Due to this collision, the sedimentary rocks which were accumulated in the geosyncline known as the Tethys were folded to form the mountain system of western Asia and Himalaya.
