    Eng Eng Eng

    1)Pangea was called a supercontinent which formed about 250 millions years ago.

    2) The scienctist estimated that Pangea was existed is because of the fossil found in Africa and South America which are the same speices.

    3) Their were 3 phrase that Pangea was formed. First is in the Early-Middle Jurassic Age when Pangea rose from the Tethys Ocean. The break up of Pangea phrase is because of the land between each continent has break up due to the core of the earth separating them with an earthquake. After that the Idian Ocean, and all of the rest of the ocean began to formed and sperated by each continent blocking the water body. That is why the Ocean was formed.

    HOW DO WE KNOW THERE WAS PANGEA?
    Palaeontologists know from finding the fossils of the same kind of dinosaur on different continents that Pangea existed. These dinosaurs couldn't swim.

    HOW DID PANGEA SPREAD?
    From plate tectonics and continental drift. For example, there is magma in the middle of the Earth. Somehow, the magma goes up to the bottom of the sea-floor and breaks it open so the land spreads apart. Then the magma starts to fill in the hole.

    WHAT'S HAPPENING NOW?
    Still continental drift and plate tectonics are happening now but it's happening just a little bit so we don't notice. Maybe after 10 million years we will know.

  3. Hello, here are my facts (Diana),

    1.Pangea was a global super continent from the early Permian to the early Jurassic.

    2.Animal life was largely uniform over much of Pangea's surface. However plants tended to be distinct in the northern and southern hemispheres

    3.Pangea is believed to have been situated around where current Antarctica is now.

  11. here is my fact
    1, South america and the west coast of africa, they fit together!

    2, In 1912 the father of theory, Alfred Wegner proposed that some 200 million years ago the worlds continents were all joined, which he called"Pangea".

    3, As the sea floor spread Pangea broke up and the continents began to drift away from each other.
    TARA THATS ALL I'VE GOT!!!!!!!!

    1. After the splitting of Pangea the once similar organisms evolved and adapted to the different continents they lived on.

    2. The ocean that surrounded Pangea was called Panthalassa.

    3.Pangea was formed from the broken segments of Rodinia.

  22. Eng, Spacetime? Elaborate please. Do you mean space? Astronomy?

    Joe B, you're the only one who forgot to make your post over the weekend. You've now received 0 on the time line you seem to have decided you simply weren't going to hand in. Not to mention the forgetting of PE clothes/shoes.

    What are you going to do about this recurring theme of you forgetting to do things and refusing to write in your planner because you "never look at it."? You're full of creative ideas, so I'd like you to think about one to rectify this issue.

  23. Mr.Alam the spacetime thing is about the gravity or something because I saw it in google when I type "spacetime" it say something like spacetime is the 4 dimmesional world and something to do with traveling through time!

    Thank you Eng

  24. Eng, it's late. Go to sleep!

    I think I know what you're talking about.. interesting stuff. When we have some time, we can watch some youtube and have a discussion about the theories. I know of a few cool videos we can take a look at.
