So I'm doing a class project, and my teacher asked how North America was formed and how did it create land under the shallow water in Lousina. My teacher said it was either Rodina (which made a super continent) or pangea (cracked apart the super continent) that caused to have land under the shallow water in Lousina. I'm confused on which one it would be.

There are a lot of theories involved. We call them "theories" because we can't prove that one of them is better than another.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodinia (Not "Rodina")
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pangaea (Not "Pangea")

BTW Asking "why" is not useful in a scientific context. Science is anything that can be measured. "Why" is not a measurement.
