Continental Drift
The continents are situated on top of tectonic plates which float on the Earth's magma under the crust. This means that the plates move about, which means yes, the continents will move but it will be very, VERY slow.

creep
No. Soil creep is the very slow movement of soil, taking years to have a noticeable effect. A debris flow often moves very rapidly.
plate tectonics

very slow
Yes, this is true. Creep is a very slow movement of sediment down a slope.
Yes, this is true. Creep is a very slow movement of sediment down a slope.
creep
The movement is extremely gradual, moving at the speed of about 0.6 inches a year. The continents are also very large pieces of land so we are less likely to feel movement towards the inside of the continent.
creep
its very slow but speeds up
Different cells move at sightly different speeds, but due to their size, it is very slow.
Locomotion: they crawl on land and swim in water.
there called continents like Africa or Asia
