Looking for the answer.
In yahoo answers people have mixed reactions. Some people are pretty sure that its a part of North America and some says its separate group of islands which doesn't come under any continent. What do you have to say regarding this ?

I believe they are mountains formed from one plate sliding under a mountain, not part of the original pangea. I don't think it's a part of any continent.

I think we get too into classifying things into categories. Just because the majority of land falls into a continent, we try putting everything in that class. I say it's an outlyer.
