Question

The continents we know today were previously clumped together in a super continent called Pangea.

Answer 1

Answer:

The Continental Drift Theory

Explanation:

The Continental Drift Theory it´s a theory that states that at the beggining all the continents were together forming a super continent called Pangea, and that over the course of millions of years the Tectonic plates of earth started to move and the continents along with them, this made the continents as we know them today.

Answer 2

For hundreds of millions of years, all the land of Earth was joined together in one large mass or super continent. Scientists call it Pangaea (meaning “all lands” in Greek). Then about 200 million years ago the land began to drift apart. It broke into two pieces, and scientists have called the continent in the north Laurasia and the continent in the south Gondwanaland (named by Eduard Suess, an Austrian geologist).  The two large continents continued to break apart into the smaller continents that exist today. Scientists call this movement ‘continental drift’.
