Reconstructing Pangea
Reconstructing Pangea is a skill on Pengi from Lesson 3: Deep Time and Pangea in Amplify Science (California) Grade 7.
Key Concepts
By reversing the direction of plate movement and using fossil clues, scientists can "rewind" Earth's history. They have reconstructed a supercontinent called Pangea , which existed about 250 million years ago.
Pangea represents a time when all of Earth's landmasses were joined. The breakup of Pangea helps explain the distribution of fossils and rock formations we see today, validating the model of plate motion over deep time.
