Answer:
Laurasia was made up of of the continents that today are known as North America and Eurasia.
Step-by-step explanation:
Laurasia was one of two supercontinents that formed as the original Pangaea supercontinent began to separate and push apart about 425 million years ago to 200 million years ago. It separated from the other supercontinent (called Gondwana) about 215 to 175 million years ago. That break was instigated with the opening of the North Atlantic Ocean. The existence of Laurasia was first proposed by South African geologist, Alexander du Toit, in 1937. He hypothesized that Laurasia continued to move and shift northward and it broke into what are today known as North America and Eurasia about 56 million years ago.
