The correct answer is - a. Pangaea.

Pangaea is the super-continent which contained all the continents we know nowadays in it, and they were all one big whole. This continent existed during the late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic eras, approximately from around 335 million years ago until 175 million years ago. Because of the intense geologic activity, around 175 million years ago, Pangaea started to break apart, thus little by little the modern day continents started to take shape.

What is the main type of tectonic plate boundary that exists along the edge of the north american plate near the coast of northe
Kitty [74]

Answer:

To the east, the North American plate shares the Mid-Atlantic Ridge with the Eurasian plate. This divergent margin, offset throughout by transform faults, began spreading approximately 180 Ma ago, opening the North Atlantic Ocean. Evidence of Mesozoic juvenile crust formation in New England can be correlated with the event.

Explanation:

The San Andreas transform boundary between the Pacific and North American plate originates from the shallow, oblique subduction by the North American plate of the Monterey microplate

The Monterey-Pacific ridge stopped spreading and Monterey accreted to the Pacific plate. As a result, the Pacific plate’s motion with respect to the North American rotated, transforming a network of shallow faults into dextral transform faults
