Question

13. Name the supercontinent from which the present seven continents of the Earth were
formed?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Pangaea

Explanation:

In geology , a super continent is the assembly of most or all of Earth's continental blocks or cartons to form a single large landmass. However, some earth scientists use a different definition, "a grouping of formerly dispersed continents", which leaves room for interpretation and is easier to apply to Precambrian times although at least about 75% of the continental crust then in existence has been proposed as a limit to separate super continents from other groupings. Super continents have assembled and dispersed multiple times in the geologic past (see table). According to modern definitions, a super continent does not exist today; the closest in existence to a super continent is the current Afro-Eurasian landmass, which covers approx. 57% of Earth's total land area. The super continent Pangaea is the collective name describing all of the continental landmasses when they were most recently near to one another. The positions of continents have been accurately determined back to the early Jurassic, shortly before the breakup of Pangaea (see animated image). The earlier continent Gondwana is not considered a super continent under the first definition since the landmasses of Baltica, Laurentia and Siberia were separate at the time.
