Artwork by Val Britton (see related link below) The Earth's oceans being fluid cannot drift! Continental drift is the very slow movement of continental plates floating on the Earth's mantle.
a rapid change
Rapid change because from all the winds and rain they have produced it will rapidly change
Llama toes! idk do your homework look in your yellow packet Mrs. Ekstrand gave you
Through the movement of the earths plates. Although very slow, the distances over millions of years is large.
Continental Drift
the Continental Drift Theory is the slow movement of the Earths continents. A.K.A the continents drift
The slow movement of continents is known as plate tectonics. This process involves the movement and interaction of large sections of the Earth's outer shell, or plates, over time. Plate tectonics is responsible for shaping the Earth's surface through processes such as sea floor spreading, subduction, and continental drift.
Tectonic plates move very slowly, but earthquakes are quite sudden. So, there are elements of slow change and fast change. Continental drift is slow.
very slow
Normally slow

Continental drift.
rapid
A rapid rate of change (which looks like this, U). A slow rate of change would have a slowly declining line like this (\ \ \ )
