Answers
☆ PANGAEA :-
Pangaea or Pangea is the name given to the supercontinent that existed during the Paleozoic and Mesozoic eras, before the process of plate tectonics separated each of the component continents into their current configuration.
Alfred Wegener was the first person to propose that all the continents were once connected together in a supercontinent, known as Pangaea. Pangaea was chosen for the name because it means 'whole earth'.
In 1927, his proposed supercontinent was named Pangaea, which means 'whole earth', and scientists still believe that Pangaea was the most recent supercontinent in the earth's history, existing about 225 million years ago.

Explanation:
★pangaea★
→Pangaea 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, Pangaea was centred on the Equator and surrounded by the superocean Panthalassa. Pangaea is the most recent supercontinent to have existed and the first to be reconstructed by geologists
