It is the theory that continents used to be formed together in one large continent, and that as the plates shifted and moved apart, continental drift happened.
Plate tectonics
The movements of tectonic plates had moved and shifted the continents in different regions and climates which makes a continent wet dry arid desert mild and etc
Continental Drift and how the continents shifted over time
Antarctica is the coldest of Earth's continents.
What happened to the earth's continents during Permian Period is Pangea, Pangea is when the used to be one big super continent broke apart created our separate continents today.
What happened to the earth's continents during permian period is pangea
When the Earth was formed ,It only had one huge continent called pangea. A thousand years later the continents slowly shifted and made seven/7 different continents

Plate tectonics
Continental Drift happened, when the tectonic plates in the earth shifted, and pushed the lithosphere up, causing our continents to split.

The Earth's plates shifted over millions of years and Pangaea OS changed into the continents we know today as Africa,Antarctica, Asia, Australia, Europe,North America, South America
They were spread apart over a period of time when the earth's crust was moving.
it probably happened during dinosaur periods when the continents split apart
