1. Evidence Of seafloor spreading
By: Mariah Seaman and Jazmyne Jones

2. This IS Pangea
- Pangea is a large landmass also known as “All Earth”.
Formed 270 million years ago.
Broke apart about 200 million years ago.

3. The Timing After Pangea Lead To…

4. Seafloor spreading
-seafloor spreading is tectonic plates slowly move away from each other. Occurs along mid-ocean ridges.
- Evidence of seafloor spreading is..

5. Animals
Living animals separated lands are similar in India and Madagascar
Examples are elephant bird and ostrich.

6. Fossils
-Fossils on the east side brazil match with fossils in western south Africa. Fossilized life in rock recorded didn’t fit in the climate they were found in ex. (Alaska , palm tree leaves )

7. It is a puzzle!
Africa and south America can fit together like a puzzle piece.
Same as India and Madagascar

8. Magnetic stripes
Magnetic stripes provide evidence of sea floor spreading
-striped magnetic patterns developed , Because oceanic crust pulls apart , magma rises to the surface at mid- ocean ridges.

9. More seafloor information!
Seafloor spreading formed 270 million years ago
Broke apart about 200 million years ago
Sea floor spreading is one of the two major processes of the plate tectonics.
Volcanoes and other features that grow or fall into sea floor spreading to move and sink with the sea floor spreading over time .
the sea floor spreading on each side of a mid -ocean ridge move in different directions each side belongs to a different lithosphere plate
