What is pangaea?
  • 1 answers

Gaurav Seth 5 years, 3 months ago

According to Wegener, all the continents formed a single continental mass, a mega ocean surrounded by the same. The super-continent was named Pangaea, which meant all earth.

Pangaea or Pangea was a supercontinent that existed during the late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic eras. It assembled from earlier continental units approximately 335 million years ago, and it began to break apart about 175 million years ago.In contrast to the present Earth and its distribution of continental mass, much of Pangaea was in the southern hemisphere and surrounded by a superocean, Panthalassa. Pangaea was the most recent supercontinent to have existed and the first to be reconstructed by geologists.
