To Write Short Note on Pangea and Panthalasa |
| Answer» PANGAEA or Pangea ( /pænˈdʒiːə/[1]) was a supercontinent that existed during the late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic eras.[2][3] It assembled from earlier continental units approximately 335 million years ago, and it began to BREAK apart about 175 million years ago.[4] 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. | |
