What is the landmass that existed 750 million years ago? (Its not Pangaea)

ANSWERED-Idea that continents have moved horizontally through the seafloor to their current location?

Rigid layer composed of Earth's crust and part of the upper mantle?

Plate boundary that occurs when 2 plates slide past one another?

Area where an oceanic plate decends into the upper mantle?


Thank you everyone for helping, if you do.

For 1:
Rodinia is the supercontinent prior to Pangea

Gondwana was a continent in the Southern Hemisphere that came from Pannotia, which in turn came from Rodinia.

Gondwana included South America, Africa, peninsular India, Australia, and Antarctica.
