The continents are located on Continental plates, which "float" and "slide" along the Asthenosphere, which is the "gooey" upper mantle and lower part of the crust.
mantle
The outer crust.
The continents of the Earth are sliding through the asthenosphere. This is the viscous part of the mantle on which the plates of the lithosphere sit.
Continents and tectonic plates are sliding on the asthenosphere, which is a ductile layer of the Earth's mantle below the lithosphere. The asthenosphere allows for the movement of tectonic plates due to its semi-fluid properties.
The continents are sliding on the asthenosphere, which is a partially molten layer beneath the Earth's lithosphere. This movement is due to the slow convection currents in the asthenosphere causing the tectonic plates to move over time.
Antarctica is a continent, and continents are not described as 'sliding'.
The plates on the top of the upper mantle are referred to as the lithosphere, which slides on the asthenosphere.well the mantle causes the continents to move on the ocean floor and sand it makes it slideyea know the crustti is i dont ge ehttt

The continents move on the lithosphere, which is the outermost layer of the Earth. This layer consists of the crust and the uppermost part of the mantle. The movement of the continents is known as plate tectonics.

If you are sliding down the hill on a sled, you are sledding.
