These masses or continents then moved away from the rift as new material surfaced. Continents eventually moved toward one another to combine into one supercontinent. ]]> 2021-01-20 15:02:23 UTC https://padlet.com/staceyannblake1/mirpkml818h0l8dk/wish/1106055562 https://padlet.com/staceyannblake1/mirpkml818h0l8dk/wish/1106173235 The type of plate boundaries there when continents come together are called rift zones.]]> 2021-01-20 15:24:05 UTC https://padlet.com/staceyannblake1/mirpkml818h0l8dk/wish/1106173235 https://padlet.com/staceyannblake1/mirpkml818h0l8dk/wish/1106183779 When the continent split apart it created new land masses such as South America, Australia, India, Madagascar, Antarctica and, Africa.]]> 2021-01-20 15:26:08 UTC https://padlet.com/staceyannblake1/mirpkml818h0l8dk/wish/1106183779 https://padlet.com/staceyannblake1/mirpkml818h0l8dk/wish/1106193950 The evidence we see is the continents fit together.

At that weak area, magma surfaced and created a volcanic rift zone. Eventually, this rift zone grew so large that it formed a basin and Pangea started to separate.]]> 2021-01-22 15:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/staceyannblake1/mirpkml818h0l8dk/wish/1114407325
