Pangea was a super-continent and it existed on the earth millions of years ago covering almost one-third of the surface of the earth.

Answer: Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pangea began to form 300 million years ago and was a cluster of several continents that separated over 200 million years ago. The Pangea was formed because of the movement of tectonic plates. This movement caused the different continents to drift towards each other and form a subcontinent.
